The Secret Life of a Musician

I photoshop-ed this photo yesterday as a little breaktime creativity session while loving my life being stuck behind a computer for 12 hours.

THE FIRST FIRST for ILoveMyLife on the interwebs

So what does “The First First” mean?  Well you see, as we at ILML Productions (yup that’s the first time i used that abbreviation) live out our lives, we like to constantly be creating ourselves, renewing ourselves.  What better way to do that, than to recognize all the “firsts” in our daily lifes.  “This is my first time brushing my teeth on the balcony”.  “This is my first time watching a sunset over the ocean on this bench next to this man”.  “This is my first entry into the ILoveMyLifeProductions website”.  It’s a constant renewal of our lives.  It’s refreshing.  It’s easy. Let me warn you, there are A LOT more first than you realize.

Anyway, yes, we may seem a little out of control with this happiness thing.  And trust me, its not always smiles and dancing unicorns.  We all have our moments. Our downer days.  Our challenges in life.  I personally have been going through a lot of interesting emotions lately.  But I’m finding on this journey of life, that it’s all in the handling of those challenges that makes or breaks you.  I don’t claim to have this system of “I Love My Life” down solid, maybe i never will, but I am trying and i am constantly conscious of my personal CHOICE to be happy and my personal choice to “Love My Life”.  The good, the bad, the average, the rad, sad, the spectacular, the mondays, the blue days, the rainy days,  all of it.   I am breathing, I have love to give and that’s good enough for me.
