When you've entered the boss stages of your internal battles, you don't realize how much you'll have to conquer to reach that new level within yourself.

When you're willing to take a chance on something, blessings come your way. After tonight, I'm a lot happier.

The world is a beautiful place, and I truly believe that you can't grow when you spend your life in one bubble of a place. I love seeing the gorgeous sunsets around this planet. They're calming, and they're always a reminder that at the end of the day, things will work out.

I always look back on the list of wonders around the world that I have saved. I know that the more places I go see and the more cultures I experience, I'll truly unlock the best version of myself. I can't wait for that chapter to begin.

See, this is the reason why I love smooth jazz.

Fighting back with kindness has been my greatest weapon for a good while and it's finally starting to show. Having someone straight up tell me that they don't like my happy and positive attitude is comical to me. That tells me that I'm doing something right.

I feel like I've always been able to do great in the things I'm passionate about, but not because I crave success, but because of my fear of failure. You get to a point where you realize that it keeps you from greatness.

I should be asleep right now, but I'm reflecting on the blessings I've been given lately. 🙏🏾😌
Ya’ll better go to sleep.. morning shift arriving.. 😩

Things have been going pretty swimmingly so far. It's been a while since I've been able to see the possible route to be able to reach my goals, and it's exciting and mind blowing. I just gotta keep this going. 😌

“Jazz stands for freedom. It's supposed to be the voice of freedom. Get out there and improvise, and take chances, and don't be a perfectionist - leave that to the classical musicians.”

I just got off of work and I'm heading to a gig, but I wanted to share something with y'all real quickly. 🧵

I'm surprised more people don't ask me enough about why I am the way I am, and having that conversation really shows you need perspectives about yourself that you didn't truly notice before. It's sorta like leveling up. Overall, it's always just a nice conversation to have with somebody.

Jazz is a complicated language. Not everyone who wishes to learn said language can understand it as well as others. Since jazz is a connecting genre of music, you'd think that there'd be people who'd want to see others succeed, right? Unfortunately, there are people out there who don't get that.

Yesterday, I had a stressful day to the point where I crashed out for a moment and asked myself why this was happening to me. When I went to bed, I saw my grandma last night. She saw I was in trouble and came to me. I need to slow down and remind myself that this journey is what will help me grow.

On this day in 1959, the Dave Brubeck Quartet recorded “Take Five”

Two years later it became a surprise hit and the biggest-selling jazz single ever.

The single was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1996.

Popular music is often scoffed at in Jazz circles, but I don't care about that. I wanna share the joys of jazz with the world. No matter how technically impressive a jazz tune can be, people won't listen if you're not having fun. Cannonball Adderley taught me that.

I'll never get tired of Jazz. It's a connecting genre that brings a lot of like minded people together, like a language.
It always makes me notice my faults, not only in my playing, but with everything else, and I'm grateful for where it has taken me.

I'm in a beautiful city and I can't wait to explore more of it. 😌🌃🏙️
