inspirational fuel…

writing from the heart is what seems to be the way to go.

Caution is used greatly though because i could easily allow my heart to fuel passion and could cause an anger.

Now this could be justified in some cases,It’s just anger fueled by passion and compassion, which doesn’t seem the proper way to convey the heart but in the same token, Much of my early music choice days were definitely fueled this way and have lead me to great inspiration and a positive direction.

I proudly went to the metallica concert on their ‘and justice for all;’ tour And also an AC/DC concert on their ‘Who made who’ tour in 1986, as a huge fan of both and that’s to only name a few bands I loved that had a lot of anger fueled by love.

Then my first grateful dead lot was early 92′ in Oakland California, then my first show was later that year with the Steve Miller Band ,which I am a large fan of, and ultimately what drove my curiosity and seeing the grateful dead.

then my first show as a die hard fan was March 93′ , then my big show and tour was later that summer , After that show I never looked back to the when and where ,then after.

The next show at the Spectrum, i basically didn’t need to know the details and just tried to continue the knowing, if you know what I mean.

the heart of the matter, Love, can show many faces, but with music even the anger can be fueled by pure love of all and through music We can vocalize the compassion through an “inspirational anger.”

fueling awareness and positive steps to a positive self-journey. I strive to maintain a balance leaning to the positive without slipping into a ” bliss Ninny” state of being.

being as aware as I can to not focus as much on dire, but to be more focused on inspiration moving brightly forward.
