i've always taken the chance to humor people; my 1st priority from a young age. my mothers suicide changed something inside me. i was only 12, starting middle school, consciously thinking "im not going to put the burden of turmoil on another human being". i've never pursued this thought process as being a potential career choice when i was at the height of this never ending painful life changing experience. responsibilities, greed and all the fun stuff included in adulthood knocked me off my feet for most of a decade in my 20's. learning the ability to be true to myself became the heaviest priority. what i've had trouble mastering is finding the right mentors, role models or even the right community of people. this is what i truly believe is what is missing in my life as i continue to face the emotional burden from my mom's suicide and the lack of emotional support from my sister and my father. the single most important task as an entertainer in any field is the chance to make people think. i haven't come close to being able to change adult opinions. without the right platforms i dont have a fighting chance.
