To describe what happened last year as anything other than "Awful" would be a massive understatement. The number of life altering moments that a person can experience while still grasping to their sanity is astounding and I am truly amazed at the strength that those in my family have mustered in order to overcome what I can only say was a series of near crippling losses, and while their absences from the holiday dinner table have been heavy we still persist in their memory.
Two of my three grandfathers, my grandmother, my uncle, and my father all passed away within a two year time span, each death was a sharp knife against my beating heart, carving ever more from the previous wound. This titanic pressure would cause anyone to re-prioritize their life, and so I did. I'm proud to say that I've started a new adventure, I'm now a licensed Insurance agent and I've begun my new career in helping people protect what truly matters. In the past I devoted myself to learning all there was to know about music theory, vocal production, and a litany of other complex systems and instruments all for the love of singing. I've now applied this near obsessive level of curiosity to insurance which has given me a strange amount of satisfaction!
I miss all these family members that are gone, especially my father and my uncle who we lost so suddenly, but I keep moving forward knowing its exactly what they would want to see. I'm gonna keep going y'all and I'm gonna make this world a little safer while I do it.
TL,DR; Life hits really hard, you want to be ready for when it does. Let's work on that together.
