Influences
God and Jesus and my daughter I lost Leandra Louise
Sounds Like
Country and Christian. And I hope to more focuse on Christian. Because this has been my dream is to have songs that God is pleased with. And maybe God being so pleased with me and my work. That he plays these songs for the ones that has passed on and are with him in heaven.
Sorry that I havent been able to put up any recent songs that I have writen. Right now some work is being done on my computer. So I'm unable to display my recent songs for the time being. The song: Goodbye my love will remain on my site. Representing the awareness towards victims of abuse. Which is what my daughter is representing through out the experience, that me & my family had encountered!! So this site is for ones like Leandra!! Along with other awareness on my site!
I write songs today. I have always loved music my whole life. But I was stricken with an illness Endometriosis (Endo) that prevents me from singing. To making this as a career. I never know when my pains are gonna hit me. I can't plan ahead. And this has always been my live long dream to sing. I remember at the age of 3 wanting to sing. When I was little I remember singing to my mothers chickens. I would always pretend they were my audience's. Now looking back I think how cute. And I knew exactly what I always wanted to do. Once my cousin asked what do you want to be when you grow up. I told her I wanted to be a singer. My cousin at the time wanted to be a dancer. But as time went by she began to enjoy the love of music herself. With needing to have that connection in that town I wasn't able to perform very much. My cousin was never too bashful to sing. I always wanted to have that same kind of bravery. I really did admire her being able to stand on stage & let everyone hear the voice God gave her. But I always felt for some reason there was tension between this cousin and me. I wasnt sure if we were constantly compared. I always thought my cousin sung beautifully. We would sing in church & I felt this was our best times together as that duo. But I still felt alot of people weren't able to hear the real me. Because of all of the struggle that can go along with Entertaining. I have performed at a pagent when I was in high school. I had sung in choir in high school. But I was pushed out, because over favortisms in school. I have sung at tulsa city limits where alot of familiar artists have sung after I got older of course. I've sung in bands. But for some reason I always had to deal with insecure wifes that felt threatened of having that lead female as a singer. So I would always deal with missed opportunities because of situations like this. I had a friend that played drums that would always tell others about my voice. On these demos are other singers singing. Because of this illness I have been unable to sing. And I have plenty more songs I'm working to getting on demo. As long as my health allows me. The song Goodbye my love is written over my baby I lost at birth. That was a twin and no one knew at the time. Until I went to loose her. But through medical malpractice I've had to deal with over my baby's death. So I'm hoping there can be changes made there. Dr. Donald Berwick crusades for hospitals reform. Is the founder for the institute for healthcare improvement. Dr. Berwick believing the right thing. Educating doctors being really important!! I am so glad we finally have a doctor on our side. Which this can help to improve the medical field. & this proves Dr. Berwick happens to be a good doctor. Him acknowledging theres a problem in the medical field & hoping to make that change so this can help everyone to receiving that kind of medical treatment we all can come to need. I was shocked & amazed that we can have a physician that is willing to giving that support to help each & everyone. Which means he cares a great deal!! & is a good hearted person!! In the medical field they can make mistakes & cover their tracks by not recording the truth. Or hiding that evidence of their crime. In many other cases the law takes this issue serious!! So its important for that improvement for us all to be able to feel safe when we happen to go to the doctor. Or when our love one needs to go. Over the truth being kept in the dark. I was told once whats in the dark God himself will bring into the light. But in the mean time I've dealt with some insecurty individuals. Even someone u barely come to know. or someone u may know ur whole life. People may not understand until they have been there themselves. That have walked that extra mile in ur shoes!! & not knowing how much is known with the involvements of the people over my daughters death. Based on behaviors of others. So I'm trying to also raise an awareness over family abuse or abuse from another rather it's a parent-child-sibling-spouse boyfriend/girlfriend or any family member. I have been abused myself. It doesnt matter what member of the family or just an acquaintance. I have come to believe it can be anyone based on my experience. It can be a relative/friend or even someone at school-or work place. Bullying is not a normal behavior and the bullying can come with all different shape and sizes!! Abuse can happen anywhere!! If u feel u arent being treated right or fairly then this is abuse. There's no getting around that! U know how u feel and u know how u shouldnt feel when ur around someone that makes u feel uncomfortable or less of ur self!! And they should come to realize this is not the way u should do another. And what if this was done to them? As it saids in the bible: To do unto others as u would have them to do unto u. To treat others the way u would want to be treated. So if a person stop and think what if this was u or someone u luv this is not the way u would want to be treated, or ur luv one to be treated this way!! What I have learned from the abuse hotline.
REPEATED ABUSE & PAST REMINDERS:
WHEN OTHERS CHOOSES NOT TO TAKE NOTE OF THE PAST ABUSE. BY TURNING A DEAF EAR! WHEN PAST ISSUES HAVE NOT CHANGED. THEN THIS BEING BASED ON HOW ONES SECURITY MAY STAND!!
If u feel u have no one to talk to these people deal with talking to people like u on a daily bases so they understand. Here is their contact number: 1-800-799-safe/ 1-800-799-7233 or for child abuse hotline: 1-800-4-A-child. And the illness I have I'm also trying to raise an awareness on this as well. Here is the information if you want to give support also. There have been love ones that have lost their lives because of this illness. Not feeling that support and raising the risk of cancer which has happened in my case. So we have to let others know we are there for them.
MARCH IS THE AWARENESS FOR ENDOMETRIOSIS. IF EVERYONE CAN PLEASE THINK OF THE ONES THAT IS DEALING WITH THIS DISEASE. WE NEED ALL THE SUPPORT THAT WE CAN GET. AND REMEMBER IT CAN CREEP UPON U OR UR LUV ONE!! WE HAVE LOST SOME THAT FELT THEY WERE ALONE DEALING WITH THIS LIFE TERM ILLNESS. IT'S NOT AN EASY TASK TO TAKE ON OR LIVE WITH. AND THERE SHOULD BE NO EMBARRASSMENT WHEN A MENSTRUAL CYCLE BRINGS SUCH PAIN. THIS HAPPENS TO BE NOT NORMAL!!!!!!!!
Diabeties also run in my family. & has taken a major toll on my mother & her familys health. If u want to help out. U can get ahold of the diabeties foundation it is: 1-800-diabeties "or" 1-800-342-2383. I had developed temporarly diabeties in one of my pregnancy's. I got lucky. But my mother & her family didnt quite get so lucky there. They have suffered alot by this horrible disease. By loosing luv ones & this illness has taken a toll on their organs.
