You know, sometimes things just don't go the way you wish. You think to yourself, "this isn't fair." Been there, done that. Eventually you come to the realization that it wasn't supposed to be this way, and that you were wrong to assume that you were mistreated, unfairly punished, or "looked over" for an opportunity. I have had my ups and downs. I have also paid my dues. I have played every kind of musical gig known to man (except polka...that one eludes me). I have taught public school music, dealt with every type of spoiled child, clueless parent and ridiculous sports fan known to man. I have slaved away with $5, a 6' ladder, and a clothes hanger on a 300 hour wiring job in the tech field. I have paid my dues. The interesting thing is, that everyday now, I get a little closer to understanding why I am here. I don't take things for granted anymore. I understand that I do not know as much as I thought (I leave that to high school seniors...I've seen 11 years of 18 year olds who know the meaning of life). I now realize exactly what I must do... I must change my course in life and become a septic technician.
Thats it...thats all I had to say. Septic Technician...
Was this just a rant so that I could post? Possibly...
**New one for the musical gigs... playing bass with about 30 First through 3rd grade violin players...The Orange Blossom Special never sounded so sweet!
