"LIFE IS A JOURNEY"



Life is a journey filled with lessons, hardships, heartaches, joys, celebrations and special moments that will ultimately lead us to our destination, our purpose in life



The road will not always be smooth; in fact, throughout our travels, we will encounter many challenges>


Some of these challenges will test our courage, strengths, weaknesses, and faith. Along the way, we may stumble upon obstacles that will come between the paths that we are destined to take.
In order to follow the right path, we must overcome these obstacles
Sometimes these obstacles are really blessings in disguise, only we don't realize that at the time


Along our journey we will be confronted with many situations, some will be filled with joy, and some will be filled with heartache.
How we react to what we are faced with determines what kind of outcome the rest of our journey through life will be like



When things don't always go our way, we have two choices in dealing with the situations

We can focus on the fact that things didn't go how we had hoped they would and let life pass us by, or two, we can make the best out of the situation and know that these are only temporary setbacks and find the lessons that are to be learned



Time stops for no one, and if we allow ourselves to focus on the negative we might miss out on some really amazing things that life has to offer.
We can't go back to the past, we can only take the lessons that we have learned and the experiences that we have gained from it and move on

It is because of the heartaches, as well as the hardships, that in the end help to make us a stronger person



The people that we meet on our journey, are people that we are destined to meet. Everybody comes into our lives for some reason or another and we don't always know their purpose until it is too late. They all play some kind of role.
Some may stay for a lifetime; others may only stay for a short while




It is often the people who stay for only a short time that end up making a lasting impression not only in our lives, but in our hearts as well. Although we may not realize it at the time, they will make a difference and change our lives in a way we never could imagine.
To think that one person can have such a profound affect on your life forever is truly a blessing

It is because of these encounters that we learn some of life's best lessons and sometimes we even learn a little bit about ourselves



People will come and go into our lives quickly, but sometimes we are lucky to meet that one special person that will stay in our hearts forever no matter what

Even though we may not always end up being with that person and they may not always stay in our life for as long as we like, the lessons that we have learned from them and the experiences that we have gained from meeting that person, will stay with us forever




It's these things that will give us strength to continue on with our journey

We know that we can always look back on those times of our past and know that because of that one individual, we are who we are and we can remember the wonderful moments that we have shared with that person



Memories are priceless treasures that we can cherish forever in our hearts. They also enables us to continue on with our journey for whatever life has in store for us.
Sometimes all it takes is one special person to help us look inside ourselves and find a whole different person that we never knew existed

Our eyes are suddenly opened to a world we never knew existed- a world where time is so precious and moments never seem to last long enough




Throughout this adventure, people will give you advice and insights on how to live your life but when it all comes down to it, you must always do what you feel is right. Always follow your heart, and most importantly never have any regrets.

Don't hold anything back

Say what you want to say, and do what you want to do, because sometimes we don't get a second chance to say or do what we should have the first time around



It is often said that what doesn't kill you will make you stronger. It all depends on how one defines the word "strong" It can have different meanings to different people.

In this sense, "stronger" means looking back at the person you were and comparing it to the person you have become today

It also means looking deep into your soul and realizing that the person you are today couldn't exist if it weren't for the things that have happened in the past or for the people that you have met
Everything that happens in our life happens for a reason and sometimes that means we must face heartaches in order to experience joy~

Go slow & enjoy life's journey.....



Enjoy the moment, it's a gift!!!

DICARLO PRODUCTIONS says

YEAH, IT´S OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
IS THERE LIFE AFTER CONTEST? :) LOL

NOT SURE IF I MADE THE TOP 20 OR NOT? I WAS #15 SHORTLY BEFORE THE END, AND HAD TO GO DO SOME SHOPPING, AND WHEN I GOT BACK IT WAS OVER!!!! :) THINGS MOVE QUICKLY HERE, SO NO ONE CAN BE SURE OF ANYTHING.
YOU COULD BE #1 ONE MINUTE AND #250 THE NEXT!!!!!! :roll:
I SAW IT HAPPEN TO SEVERAL PEOPLE!!!!! PEOPLE TEND TO GET JEALOUS, AND JUST VOTE YOU DOWN.
THAT HAPPENS IN EVERY CONTEST, BUT IT WAS REALLY EXTREME IN THIS ONE!!!! :roll:
I MADE IT TO #3 AT ONE POINT, AND IT WAS ONLY FROM PEOPLE I KNOW ON THE SITE, BECAUSE I NEVER ASKED ANYONE TO VOTE FOR ME OUTSIDE OF THIS SITE!!!! :) I ALSO ALWAYS SAID, "VOTE IF YOU LIKE THE SONG". I WON´T VOTE FOR SONGS I DON´T LIKE, AND DON´T EXPECT MY FRIENDS TO EITHER. :)

ANYWAY, MAYBE I MADE THE TOP 20?! BUT IF YOU´RE NOT A YOUNG ROCK BAND, (WHICH THEY SPECIFICALLY STATED THEY WERE LOOKING FOR IN THE SPIN VIDEO) YOUR CHANCES ARE NULL!!!

I´M ALSO #3 IN LATIN AT OURSTAGE.COM WITH MY SONG "DO YOU WANT MY LOVIN". I´VE BEEN #3 FOR OVER A WEEK, SO I IMAGINE I´LL PROBABLY MAKE THE QUARTER FINALS, SEMI FINALS, AND WILL ONCE AGAIN LACK THE VOTES TO GET IN AND WIN THE FINALS, UNLESS MY 100´S OF FRIENDS HERE AT MUSIC NATION COME OVER AND VOTE FOR ME!!! :) THAT WOULD BE COOL, BECAUSE I´VE BEEN IN THE TOP 10 SEMI FINALS 5 OUT OF 6 CONTESTS IN 4 DIFFERENT GENRES. IT WOULD BE COOL TO FINALLY WIN. :)

BY THE WAY, THERE´S SOME INCREDIBLE TALENT ON THIS SITE!!!!!! A LOT OF YOUNG TALENT!!!! ONE OF THESE ARTISTS SHOULD WIN, BECAUSE SPIN IS LOOKING FOR THE NEXT BIG ROCK BAND!!!! :)

AT LEAST I KNOW MY SONGS ARE GOOD, AND WHICH WERE THE STRONGEST IN THE CONTEST!!!!!!
SINCE WE WERE ABLE TO CHANGE OUR SONGS DURING THE ENTIRE CONTEST, I DID SOME EXPERIMENTING!!! :)

THESE ARE THE SONGS THAT DID THE BEST;

1."LOVE IS THE KEY" IS A WINNER!!!
2."YOU DID IT TO ME" DID EXTREMELY WELL!!!!
3."DON´T STOP" DID GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
4."DO YOU WANT MY LOVIN" DID VERY WELL!!!
5."IN THE NAME OF" DID VERY WELL!!!!!!!

I TRIED OTHERS, BUT IT WAS PRIMARILY A ROCK CONTEST, SO JAZZ, FUNK, ELECTRONIC, GENERALLY DIDN´T DO THAT WELL FOR ANY LENGTHY PERIOD OF TIME!!!!!!
THIS WILL VARY ON DIFFERENT SITES AND IN DIFFERENT CONTESTS, BUT IT WAS AN INTERESTING EXPERIMENT, AND THE 5 SONGS ABOVE ALL DID EXTREMELY WELL!!!!!!! :D

AS I SAID BEFORE, NONE OF THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN POSSIBLE WITHOUT MY FRIENDS AND FANS HERE.
I´M VERY GREATFUL TO ALL OF YOU. :)
I´VE HEARD SO MUCH GREAT MUSIC, MET SO MANY WONDER FUL PEOPLE, AND HAD SOME GREAT LAUGHS HERE IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS, IT´S LIKE FAMILY FOR ME. SO I´LL BE AROUND HERE IN THE FUTURE. MAYBE NOT EVERYDAY, BUT A FEW TIMES A WEEK FOR SURE.

THANKS FOR YOUR FRIENDSHIP AND SUPPORT, I REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

ALL OF YOU ARE WINNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:)

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND.

Today's Spotlight / salute, brought to you by LSD: (PLEASE READ ALL OF IT. IT'S ABOUT YOU)

Wow. I just woke up from only about a couple hours of sleep, and I don't mainline speed anymore, so please excuse my lame wording. Okay, first off I wanna say that you all know that since we are in the dark at the moment, that I 100% share your feelings in multiple "genres", if you will.

Be strong, and know that although this was an absolute grueling competition, and that most of us worked very hard, that our work HAS NOT BEEN IN VAIN. We have all been heard by more people in far away places, that we could have ever hoped for. PLUS (big plus) obviously THIS WILL NOT BE THE LAST COMPETITION here at MN. Lots, lots, LOTS more to come. We also learned soooo much about ourselves and eachother. The collaboration potential is amazing as well. All in all...............FREE PROMO BABY!!!

Ahhhhhhhh, but now comes the absolute most important part of this comment. You ready? Here it comes.....................

LSD's spotlight salutes (A very VERY special one):

If you notice below, there are no links, nor are there names. If you also will notice, you as well as I, in an unselfish quest to explore new artists, probably haven't heard your own music in a while. Or not in depth anyway. In this, it is very EASY to forget what you think about YOURSELF, how you feel about your music, and how great you are, along with your absolute endless potential. Especially after hearing some of there fucking geniuses here at MN. So, the music I want you to focus on today, and the music I am saluting is very simple, and you won't have to go far to hear it either.

Put on headphones, and as loud as you can, listen to yourselves! This is the music that I mostly recommend for you to hear! It is also the music that I can guarantee you'll find to be just what you're looking for. Feel it just like the day you wrote it. The emotions of love, anger, joy, dedication, the person you wrote it for or about, etc, etc, etc....... as the magic of these songs are the ENDLESSNESS of them.


That's my word for today. Thank you for EVERYTHING ladies and gents. The "Nation" loves you!!!

So its after 12 and we're still going! Apparently i'm not sleeping tonight. I'm guessing we have a few more hours before we get our lives back so what better way to spend them other than voting for all of our kick ass friends?! Exactly, no better way.

David Wheeler says

Hello I am pleased to say that I just voted for you because I dig your music and I wanted to thank you for the votes and comments and the general kindness that you have shown me and I wanted to say good luck and let you know that I am online and voting for you any chance I can in the short time we have left in the semis

Acoustic Phases says

My latest song.
I dedicate this song to my wonderful beautiful wife; Bridgett.
We have been married now for 17 years.
This song is about special moments between us that I wanted to try and capture and put into song.

Enjoy and please leave me a comment.
It is a first recording, one shot, I dont have the best equipment in the world, so please forgive........
