Doll is Goin Back to Cali; Looking for an Angel
It is countdown to 2011 . . . I'm headed to Los Angeles in January for a few BIG events. It's time to take this dream to a nationwide audience, and L.A. is the first stop. Why? Because for one thing, it is the city of dreams (wait, is that New York?) but most importantly for me, because that's where my parents lived and recorded with gospel greats (and my dad had a gospel record store and a radio show) in the years before I was born. It is the place I heard them tell stories about when they talked about what they "used to be" and "could have been." I don't want my life to end with a list of what I "could have been." So, here I go - I'm officially a California Girl. Well not for real because ATL is where it's at, but I am goin' back to Cali. The take over has hit the road.
Speaking of my dreams . . .
For those of you who know me well, you know that I write songs in my sleep. Like literally I will dream an entire song, hear the full band arrangement, harmonies, crazy lyrics and everything. Then I will wake up and have about 2 minutes to try to record it into my phone before it leaves my mind forever. Those are the songs that come straight out of my spirit, and bypass my mind altogether. I have never recorded one of those spirit songs without moving someone that hears it to chills or tears. It is a God thing. So I have had two nights in a row of the most amazing music coming out of my dreams. I hope to get in and record them soon. I used to run from my gift, but a wise woman told me to stand still and face it and embrace it. Once you give your gift to the world, it is out of your hands but you can't make magic with a closed fist. True words.
*****************Girls Just Wanna
Ok, so every girl, no matter how successful, still wants someone in their life they can just . . . you know . . . BE with. You ever wanna just BE? So every successful woman has gone through this -- you work hard to become successful, and then the men around you are intimidated by you! I know it's not just me. Matter of fact, Aretha Franklin went through it and wrote a song about it. Check me out singing it:
Anyway, I'm not sweating it . . . I know my prince will come :-)
Thought for the Day:
I tend to say "You are unstoppable as long as you don't stop." What I mean is, "DO NOT try to stop me because if you do you will get RUN OVER!!" I am not somebody who woke up yesterday and decided I am cute and want to be a singer. This is my destiny, so don't mess with me . . . ya heard?!
That's a word from my Diamond Mind. Let me know what's on yours -->;
Peace from the Dollhouse -->
