MUY BUENAS A TOD@S!!! ESTAIS INVITADOS A LA JAM SESION PRESENTACION DEL FESTIVAL DE MUSICA NEGRA ENCLAVE DE AGUA (SORIA) EN EL JUNCO ESTE VIERNES 17 DE JULIO A LAS 23H. OS ESPERAMOS!!!!
To Release isn't to forget, not to think about, or ignore. It doesn't leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret. It's not about pride and it's not obsessing or dwelling on the past. It's not about giving in or giving up. To let go is to cherish the memories, but to overcome and move on. Letting go is learning and experiencing and growing. To release is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh, made you cry, and made you grow. It's about all that you have, all that you had, and all that you will soon gain. Letting go is releasing and having the courage to accept change, and the strength to keep moving. It is realizing that the heart can sometimes be the most potent remedy. To let go is to open a door, and to clear a path and set yourself free---
Evan Christian, remember that it's easy to let go when holding on hurts so bad--so free yourself from all these expectations and just be :-) Hope you find the unity in my new single "Release" feat. JRockA. So come peep the track! Stay creative and stay connected!!
