Sometimes things happen in your life that have the power to stop you in your tracks (AKA smack ya upside tha head AKA deter you from your mission AKA ruin everything).

Last week, after an incredible two day music bender with our super friend Sherry St Germain, my bag was stolen outside of our studio. It contained my laptop/HD camcorder/digital camera/life.

When I discovered this had happened, things went into slow-mo.

4 REAL – Just about had a nervous breakdown.

The next couple days were spent in a haze of self pity and depression. Try to understand…..I had mapped the next 6 months out! Many things I had planned were now foiled. This COULDN’T have happened.

To make matters worse, the police couldn’t do anything because I’m a moron and I didn’t write down any of the serial numbers for my equipment, therefore diminishing my chances of having them find it. They probably have better things to do anywayz…..

ALRIGHT ENOUGH!

I’m not asking for your pity, or trying to garner a sympathy vote. Just know that I lost some DOPE footage and a couple incredible sessions with new music I’ve been working on.

BLESSING IN DISGUISE – Last week my hard drive temporarily failed causing me to back up my laptop in fear.  So almost everything else was saved!

COINCIDENCE? I think not!

So know this – I’ve just arrived from a dark place that’s becoming brighter due to my eternal optimism…Now, all I can do is use this experience as a jet pack to boost up to the next level. Whoever stole my belongings has bad karma now anyway, so no more worrying.

I’m staying positive and I won’t give up! – This just fuels my ambitions even more!
