When I first started writing music, it was a means to express how I felt. I had no voice and I was very alone. I was abused, teased, bullied...I was made to feel less than human. I carried myself wondering 'what's wrong with me?'

As an adult, it wasn't any easier. I was homeless, helpless, and hopeless. I attempted suicide a number of times, I just didn't want to live anymore. When your pain is greater than your ability to cope, you get desperate.

Through therapy, counseling and medication my mental disabilities of PTSD, depression, panic and anxiety attacks are for the most part stable. With a clearer mind, and maybe being older too, I realize that all that time growing up I thought I was the problem, when I never was. All those wasted years all due from a lack of being loved and protected. Still, so stands this man before you...stronger, talented, smarter..

Imperfectly perfect.

We will all have our days, but just remember, no matter what you're going through, that you are perfect just the way you are. It is perfectly natural to feel anything you feel, but it is what you do when you are feeling these emotions that define you!

Love who you are and be kind, always. You never know what anyone is going through :)
