It’s about that time to pick up my pen again.. and start writing.. and creating. I may never fit in with typical on-time music bloggers but am somehow perfectly content because what I share is based only when I’m moved by something. However, I really have missed sharing music while getting overwhelmed in the bubble of this so-called life. My little side project or hobby as my family likes to call it, of having the jewelry line *Couture by Lolita* has now rushed me into my big real-time dreams, and my heart is beginning to finally open up all the opportunities that I’ve always wanted to maintain as apart of my secret. In the last year, I overworked myself to the point of severe exhaustion, but believe my own business has lead to doing the most fulfilling work that I ever have.

Although I do love designing jewelry & accessories, this is not my chosen career or true forte. My dreams will forever love the beauty and power of music, and that’s how it will remain. Sounds and lyrics effect my day to day, and are what I plan to always base my entire world on.  The way colors of notes, and wavelengths border patterns of beats to visual images are something that will continue to be embedded in my mind. Writing about the passion behind a musician’s biography, interviewing a genius who provides an extended amount of vulnerability and intensity, and standing underneath the lime lights of an electrifying live show are all things that challenge and lead to the success of why I even bother to express how these details inspire my sun-drenched, gypsy soul.

In the last few months, I’ve gathered music is art ideas under my sleeves and have been educating myself to strive harder not to only be a good woman, but to utilize my strengths into helping others who deserve the time and effort. This past January, I turned the adult age of 30 and celebrated my birthday as if I was gifted with the notion of finally understanding who I am. There are no more excuses, and there are no more past mistakes anymore. To my family, friends, strangers, people I may never know, and most importantly to myself, I promise that I will continue to be better in everything that I do, share, and am as a person this year. Even if it’s the simplest and smallest degree of change, deep down I know it will be worth all that I can give. It’s time! More soon…

Listen: Gotye – Somebody That I Used to Know

(Making Mirrors, 2011)

I have come curiously close to the end, down
Beneath my self-indulgent pitiful hole,
Defeated, I concede and
Move closer
I may find comfort here
I may find peace within the emptiness
How pitiful

It’s calling me…

And in my darkest moment, fetal and weeping
The moon tells me a secret – my confidant
As full and bright as I am
This light is not my own and
A million light reflections pass over me

Its source is bright and endless
She resuscitates the hopeless
Without her, we are lifeless satellites drifting

And as I pull my head out I am without one doubt
Don’t wanna be down here feeding my narcissism.
I must crucify the ego before it’s far too late
I pray the light lifts me out
Before I pine away

So crucify the ego, before it’s far too late
To leave behind this place so negative and blind and cynical,
And you will come to find that we are all one mind
Capable of all that’s imagined and all conceivable.

Just let the light touch you
And let the words spill through
And let them pass right through
Bringing out our hope and reason …
before we pine away.

For years, depression has been seen as something imaginary by the world.  Some believe if they are sad, that it’s easy to get over. Most don’t understand that pain is real.  Only those that are strong enough to admit that depression is something that they have struggled through, realize that it takes a lot more than trying to forget what you’re feeling.

It’s a honest discussion to be a part of.  There’s many levels of trial and tribulations.   It can take years to discover why you feel the way you do.  It can take decades of therapy to discover how to better yourself.  The tears, mood swings and anger all become a part of baby steps. Those that challenge their own sincerity, find similarities in their own desires of why they choose toxic friends, lovers, family members. Understanding why one thinks they deserve them becomes the hardest part. Depression is a life altering force that either completely takes over to destroy or makes a heart become so strong that no one can even come close to touch. As the objection lands, the only way to get through is to believe that life does get better, that there are good people out there,  and many exciting brand new adventures waiting behind the door…
