Blogging: Any time Any where!

The nice thing about blogs, you can work on one nearly any place.  It especially makes it convenient when your computer is a laptop and you have access to an internet hotspot.  You can literally go out in the middle of nowhere and just start writing.

This is one thing that I have always told myself that I want to do.  I love nature and I think it would be so awesome one day just to pack up my computer, phone, and instruments into my little 2005 Chevy Cavelier and drive out to some forest or beach type setting and just start writing and/or playing.

I’m a writer and a musician.  Both passions are equally important to me, although I don’t play as much as I would like, I still love taking out my saxophone and playing whatever my mind comes up with.  It’s intriguing what the mind can imagine and send to the brain which then transports to the fingers to create something that is awesome.

I can be anywhere at work and yet my mind can be somewhere else, off on some faraway journey to the great unknown that I will later record for the world to read and/or listen to when they turn on their radios or open up their newspapers.

But alas, when the end of the day rolls around and I wake up from my daydream, I am here again, sitting in front of my computer or sheet music.  I close up the documents on my desktop and put away my instruments and I sigh, because I know one day, I will take that long drive, I will get away for a few short hours and I will play till my hearts content, I will write till my hands bleed, because I know that is what I’m meant to do and I will do it.  I mean it.  I will.

One Shot

I have this song stuck in my head—  Ever heard of One Shot by Newsboys.

If you haven’t, you should definitely take a listen.  It’s a good song, definitely geared toward the present generation of people fixated on their Facebook or Twitter status, but that doesn’t matter.  What matters is getting the word out about things and using these social media sites to harvest new ideas, concepts or whatever.  I’m not going to lie or try to deceive you, yes, newsboys is a christian rock band and if you don’t believe or have other beliefs, thats not the point.  The point is social media sites are extremely good means of telling the world about anything and that’s the point of the song that I think people should pay attention too.

Of course, if you get something MORE from the song.  That’s okay too.  The song is layered with several messages of all forms.

You don’t believe me, just listen for yourself.
