Music saved my life. Today marks 10 years drug free for me. If you are going through something, know that you are never alone. And there is always help out there for those who seek it. Dream on.

Today's Wise Words

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

RIP Steve Jobs

Random Thought of the Day: A good Chorus should make you want to Speed.

Happy October 1st!!!

September and October start off my Favourite time of year. I love the Fall. I LOVE Halloween. And Christmas.

The whole season makes me really happy and inspired. Last night I began reading a book called "The Adventures of the Twilight Zone". It's a collection of short twisted stories, and I know I'm going to love every minute of it.

When I was little I used to gravitate towards "scary stuff" all the time-- I always used to take the same book out of the library around this time of year. It was a collection of old ghost stories, but I don't remember the name of the collection. And in my high school years my family's Christmas eve tradition was coming home from our Christmas Eve service to cozy up by our TV and finish wrapping presents while watching "Psycho".

I've shy-ed away from the "scary stuff" over the past couple of years, but now I'm back. It's thrilling. And I've missed it.

This must explain my love of Tim Burton films, especially one of my absolute Favourites, "The Nightmare Before Christmas". To me, it's the perfect blend of both Halloween and Christmas, the light and the dark, the "good" and the "bad", and how both can be equally Subjective.

Anyways, I just wanted to kick off the Holidays by sharing some personal memories. And I wish you all much Joy, Spooks, Sweets, Peace, and Love this Holiday Season.

Rock On, Madysin
