Welcome to Soundbytes by J., an audio scrapbook that captures the small, vivid moments that make life worth archiving. In this entry, I share my experiences from April 2025 — a month full of travel, connection, and unexpected insights. Crawfish critiques and car meet surprises, and family stories from South Carolina to Louisiana.

This is a space for memory-keeping, storytelling, and building a community through audio frequency. Feel free to join the conversation in the comments, share your takeaways, or simply vibe out. Thanks for listening.

Entry Highlights:
– "You will only ever exist here and now. Don’t live in the past or the future — happiness lives in the present."
– "Remember that it takes confidence to be stupid. Change takes time, but through consistency, you’ll begin to see it."
– "You live your best life when you do exactly what you want and stop apologizing for it."
– "Behave in ways that make you happy, and how you’re perceived will naturally filter out misaligning energies."
– "I’m at the crossroads of all the best qualities of my past and present, working toward my future self."

Features:
- Uncle Calvin
- Uncle Pop
- Mama Shirley
- Isiah Carey
- Roach & Day-Day - played by Justin Pierce & Mike Epps
- Chris H.
