Hi! I already posted about a lot of comic book and Star Wars stuff so I guess you could call this an introduction part two! I guess i never really expounded on music during my last post.

soo, I Just wanted to share a photo of myself and share one of the things that I am very passionate about.
something that has been my companion in hardships and victories.
I love music. not just a certain genre or a certain instrument but the whole idea of making something out of nothing?
I mean, Man. That speaks volumes

I love making music because a lot of times it can say things that words cannot just express, It could be a note or a beat.
as long as it comes from the heart.

I started playing the guitar at 13, because that was popular during my time.
if you knew how to play an instrument, you suddenly became a rockstar
I mean, I was in it for the fame, but I got hooked pretty early
because playing music gives you a certain high that no drug can top.

i mean you're literally on cloud nine!
whenever I'm happy, sad, excited, nervous, depressed, anxious, I get my guitar and I just play and play. sometimes, all night long.

My journey with music was an amazing ride, I got to meet a lot of people who had the same passion as me.
I also got to learn from them too and by the time I was in college, I already knew how to play the piano, Bass and drums!

so this post is also a way of honoring the people who had made me the musician I am now because without them,
I may not even have learned anything at all!

Also, this is a way to encourage you! Yes You! the one who is reading this!
I believe music is for everybody!
don't think that music is only for talented people. listen to me.
**YOU. CAN. LEARN. IT. **
again.

YES. YOU. HEARD. ME. RIGHT. YOU. CAN. LEARN. IT.

my love for music eventually pushed me to teach it to children so that they too would be able to have the chance to enjoy the gift of music.

Its an an amazing sight to see children develop from not knowing anything to jaw dropping performances.
It's like the best feeling in the world, sure it doesn't pay much but the rewards are priceless.
