The 4 F's of my life...

I have been saying it for about a year now and have even been thinking about titling my book after it but I can break everyone in my life down into 4 f's: Family, Friends, Fans and Fakes... This may sound harsh in some ways but its complete reality. the older you get the more you learn that not everyone has your best interests at heart and more often than not they don't care about your needs at all. We live in a world where we grow up on fairy tales of love and compassion yet are surrounded by more of the evil stepmothers and sisters of Cinderella where its more about me, me, me than anything. Let's break it down a bit more... Family - This is a tricky title because family is generally blood. It's who you grew up with and is there through it all. You may disagree and fight yet you are family and at some level even if you don't speak there is usually some type of love and care underneath it all. Now I said tricky because randomly you will have people come into your

The Secret and COD

In a writing mood so I thought I'd jump on and tell you all hello! My day started pretty rough as I made my commute in the rain. Ever since my car has been down I have been forced to really deal with all the lovely weather our beautiful state has to offer yet I stayed smiling and positive and for that my day completely turned around, I got off early and got a little COD in :) I watched The Secret yesterday. It was my second time watching it as the first was about 5 years ago when an ex had me watch it and it was a much needed reminder yesterday. For those who have not watched it I highly recommend it! I've also been reading a book along the same guidelines and I when I am done with this one I will be looking for another. I have always tried to remain a positive person regardless of the things that happen in life and for that no matter the struggles that arise I always seem to be able to handle them and change things back around. Now its time to leave those struggles in the pas

Industry life | the thin line between working and over-working

When in the industry you are pretty much on the clock 24/7. Every place you go, every person you meet could be a connect, a venue, etc.. Dinner with friends, sporting events and even a trip to the mall could lead to a meeting, networking, a gig, a check.. While all of this is great and important it can sometimes get exhausting because no matter how much you know you need to separate it sometimes, reality is you can't. Not like a normal person can. There is no time card to punch, clock to watch or sign off to do. It's you, the entertainer and the world is your stage. This means that any person that is in our lives have to not only realize and acknowledge this but also accept it. Truth is, not many can. Our friends, family, loved ones can't get it if they're not in it. If the passion isn't shared, if the dreams aren't the same then they will never truly get it. This doesn't mean you can just do whatever and get away from it but it means that you gotta keep yo

Bad blogger

So I realized this week I have been a very bad blogger... I always feel like I have to have some huge statement to make, political discussion to have, event to discuss, etc. in order to write on this blog of mine but I am now realizing that's not what its about. I enjoy writing and talking about randomness, even day to day life so I will attempt to write a bit more about the things going on from small to large because in many ways I think you all will relate to those blogs even more. I even want to write more about topics that you all suggest- help topics, relationship advice, the music industry, kids and more so if you have something you want me to blog about then email me- KtownKris@gmail.com Thank you all for your continued support and stay tuned for more blogging!
