I am originally from the midwest (20 miles north of Detroit, Michigan) and my four sisters and I were raised by two wonderful hard working parents. In 2001 I had enough of the cold and decided to move south (Charlotte, North Carolina), where I now reside with my beautiful wife and two sons (3 year old and 1 year old). Throughout my life there have been people that have helped get me to where I am today and I am not sure I have adequately expressed my appreciation and gratitude towards them.
The idea for this blog was something I had conjured up while driving to class one day trying to decide what exactly I might like to blog about if I were to create a blog. As I was driving, my iPhone was connected and shuffling through a series of my favorite tunes, when the idea hit me. I will write about songs, or more specifically lyrics in songs that speak to me, where does the song take me and what is the message I am getting from the song. Music has always been an important part of my life, every day since I can remember consisted of music. Songs have a way of lifting your spirits, getting you through a tough time, transporting you to a different place, or a different time.
This blog should also serve as a reminder to have appreciation and express gratitude for music, lyrics and the way they allow us to travel back to moments in our lives.
