Remember your limitations-act wisely

So I have neither the talent or the resources to take my kids music business further.

That is just the hardcore reality.

My family suffers if I do not attempt to be responsible and make a living that supports all of our needs.

Unless God opens more doors,there is little I can do:

I have lost 2 huge clients since I started this business including:
-PreKindergarten
-Appletree

Smaller
-Great Beginnings

I have also lost ALL of my audience from last years
cedarbrae concerts. ALL of them.
Unless I can work huge shows Fri-sun,it is not gonna happen.

I will have to run music classes like everyone else

I also still want to move to Vancouver and that will definitely NOT happen
If nothing changes with my income

It has been a great ride.

Time to go forward and look ahead.

The Vocational Bipolar Chameleon



The Vocational Bipolar Chameleon comes in many forms. A rather docile, yet wildly creative creature, this 36 year old male has a history of being a life skills instructor (2 years), job developer (5 years) and has most recently adapted to the shape of a Canadian "Postie" or mail man (3 months). He bores easy and has yet to settle into a full satisfying career. While once a kids pastor and gigging guitarist & lead vocalist, he is toying around with melding his passion for teaching & music and being an (wait for it..) elementary music school teacher! 3 years of a Creative Writing major and History minor means 2 years of schooling to go...This added to his nightly guitar teaching position at a local high school may be the majik formula to give this bipolar animal a meaningful life to boot...he just needs to believe in the dream strong enough and amplify the courage building effects of some good counselling and meds....

I know statistically bipolars have a hard time keeping jobs, but there are a few who inspire the rest of us in the herd to make f/t jobs happen. ( herd from Lizzy Simon's -"Detour: Bipolar road trip in 4-D"...awesome book -www.lizziesimon.com

Now may the God who kingdomizes us with gifts, skills and talents to leave a legacy for the world, help us to own who he has made us to be and have the boldness to see our dreams become reality.Amen

4.5 out of 5 pucks....feelin purdy optimistic today...and a shout out to my bipolar Dad homeboy J at http://jsbipolarblog.blogspot.com/
