Beat Number One Hundred and Thirty-Eight

Today’s beat is a samba jam, featuring Sam Vanfossen (@samvan) on Guitar and Carson Dunn on his MS2000 synthesizer. It’s a super fun excerpt, and there’s at least one more where this one came from.

I want to write more, but I’m currently posting from this Partiko app and it’s not as comfortable as using my desktop with full, physical QWERTY keyboard. Haha. I’m using my phone to post because I’m back in Nashville for the weekend to move my remaining things into storage until I have 1) found or been presented with an opportunity to make music for a living, 2) found a job that I simply cannot refuse or 3) indefinitely as I travel while cashing out my crypto holdings.

I feel torn about my current situation. Part of me feels like a societal anomaly because I have no typical “job,” making FICO currency. Honestly, this part of my life could probably be sorted super quickly if I was willing to work just any job. But, I’ve lived my life simply chasing money for too long.

All that said, I am not above getting another job at all. I actually desire one so I can be around people everyday instead of cooped up in my bedroom everyday, striking out in the evenings to visit the same friends. How am i going to find the wife of my dreams otherwise? Haha

My point of departure (and the reason I am currently broke except for my crypto holdings) is that I am no longer willing to accept any job exchanging my vital years of time for currency that is all but guaranteed to completely fail us all. I want to create this collective and make it legitimate or be hired by people to create music, whether it be beats, classical works or simply recordings of my voice for a chorus in your own tune, etc. I am no longer accepting defeat, but now it’s time to get tough because I’m feeling the defeat starting to kick in. My patience has an abnormally low threshold, so for the first time in my life, I’m trying to not be impulsive.

I desire to turn this position I’m in to one of empowerment. I’ve disappointingly allowed people to see my weaker traits through the years, but it’s all behind me now. We are now on the uphill climb. With all of my personal luggage, I’ve definitely had to drop into first gear to begin the climb. The important fact is that I have slowed but I haven’t stopped. It’s time to do things the RIGHT way.

I envision LOTS of hard work for me in the coming months, but at the end, I will be in a place to support others monetarily, artistically and personally. I desire your support as the pathway is visible. I’m gaining momentum steadily. It won’t be long before Im finally at a place to begin reaching out to the people I’m close to on Steemit and in broader life.

Meditate with me on the love residing at our core.
Connect with me and let’s build something we can all realistically win with. No compromising because everything is already one and we are the puzzle pieces that will fit together into the bigger picture.

Much love to you all!
