I'm Back!

Boy! I had no idea so much time has passed since my last blog entry! I had all but forgotten that it existed until a friend of mine reminded me of it. So, yes, here I am again.

Today, I was listening to some very old songs and very new ones. Madonna and Mariah Carey have both released new albums. The fact is, I grew up listening to them. They along with Kylie, Debbie, Tiffany and Whitney provided the soundtrack to my life.

Today, I listened to Whitney’s Greatest Hits! You know what? No one else has such an excellent voice as the Whitney of the eighties. Yup! Not even the Whitney of today. It’s sad to see how drugs and booze robbed her of those irreplaceable vocal cords.

I was listening to “the greatest love of all” and it brought back memories of my own short lived singing “career”! Can’t believe I was able to sing! Well, that’s one dream I think I have sort of given up on. I don’t think I am ever going to be an accomplished recording artist now.

It’s funny how our goals and aspirations change with time! Apart from producing an album, I have achieved every other goal an ambition of mine. Now, I only need to put up new goals.
My motto now is simply “to achieve total happiness in everything I do”. To a large extent, I’m living my dream. I now want to change my motto “to make those around me happy”! Difficult! But hey, who’s going to stop me trying?
