SAY I WON'T

Tell me that I can't do it. Tell me that I shouldn't even try. Tell me it's impossible. Tell me the risk is too high, the challenge too much, or the feat too tough. Tell me that I won't do it and I WILL.  SAY I WON'T.  ~Motto to live by in 2012

Swim fast, breathe later.

It’s been told that swimming is a wimp sport, but I don’t see it. We don’t get timeouts in the middle of a race, we can’t stop and catch our breath, we can’t roll on our stomachs and lie there, and we can’t ask for a substitution.”  ~Unknown

French Horn

By DigitalErik On January 8, 2012 · 1 Comment · In Thoughts

Today I have made a key decision as far as my music career goes. I have decided to switch from trumpet to French Horn. I made this decision because I like the warm mellow tone it has better than the trumpet.  Don’t get me wrong, I still like the sound of the trumpet because it’s [...]
