It Begins...

It begins in the city of San Diego.

It begins in a loving home, with loving people.

It begins... with me.

I made the choice to leave Los Angeles long ago, but I hadn't decided when. Now, I'm here in San Diego, and I can hardly remember those moments leading up to my decision. It all happened so quickly, so organically... and really, I don't want to look back. This entire adventure is about looking forward, and moving forward.

So what the heck am I doing here??

... Changing.

... Growing.

... Bettering my life, myself, and those around me.

Striving for more, going for more, and doing more. This is my chance to face my fears, chase my dreams, and acquire the life I've always wanted to live. A life with purpose, meaning, love, and always always spreading joy, peace and happiness. In every way that I can.

This includes, but is NOT limited to:

-Sharing my music 

-Working on cooking projects

-Finding opportunities to volunteer

-Tutoring those in need of help

And being an advocate for things I believe in, however I may do so. There are so many topics that I have become passionate about, and I want to finally do something about them. The planet is in trouble, our animals are mistreated, and our people are desperately seeking answers and progress. Mostly, we all need a little more love, a little more peace, a little more compassion, and... no, wait, we need a LOT more of all of that. And I want to be someone who impacts this world in a positive way. Not just on a small scale, but a larger one. More than just one city, many cities. More than just a few people, many people. More than just me, the world.

Moving forward, as is our theme here, I'm incredibly excited and ready to get moving on these desires of mine! These first couple of weeks will be mostly settling in and unpacking, coupled with a visit home to see those I love and miss so much. No matter what, it's all upward from here. Accompanied by my little man, Buster, we face this world with strength, dedication, passion and love. And most importantly, a big ol' smile on our faces! =)

Buster also wanted to say a few words:

"Woof woof,

Woof woof woof... woof, bark bark.

Arf arf bark... mmmm woof. "

I couldn't have said it better. To the future! <3
