Roots.

They say when you feel yourself drifting too far, taking on too much you only need to remember, where you started. I couldn't figure out how, but in an early morning fit of grasping at the last straws of my muse, I found an old gem. A composer who used to be a distant friend of mind back before I even went to High school. To me music is by far the most powerful thing on earth. It reminds me of everything, specifically these songs reminded me of why I started writing. It takes me back before I wanted to change the world, before I even knew what the world was. It took back before my first love, first break-up, before this feeling of bitterness ever brisked my heart. All I wanted then was to express these intricate stories and worlds bouncing around in my head. I just recently found an escape in writing, and words. Experiencing for the first time the entrancing grip an author can have on his reader through Eric Nylund. I stumbled into being a writer, it chose me. Then I started to write, always to the entrancing melodies created by Justin Durban. All I wanted then was to help others feel what those two helped me feel. I've grown and been through a lot since then, sometimes I feel too much, but through all the hardships I have become a stronger man; a better man. I think Tanta would be proud.

I owe eternal gratitude to the people I have in my life, I am truly blessed with great friends and family. You guys are the thing that drives me the hardest, and I won't let you down.
