I want to be

Watching and listening to people sing, something came to my mind. I have a long road to walk, a very long road, I don’t have what it really takes to get to where my heart longs to be.

Since I was a little girl, I loved to sing. I will sing at school, at church, to my friends, and to my loved ones, I also had the dream of becoming a star. Growing up, a lot of people tried to discourage me, but I kept on.

I sang everywhere. In the churchs choir, at school, community activities. I never took a voice lesson nor music classes. I thought I knew everything I needed to know for singing. But now, In this right moment of my life, I realize that I don’t have what it really takes.

Im too shy

Im always off of tune

I cant remember a melody or tone

I just sing well, but I don’t know the most important things. I know some people went through what Im going through, and most of those people gave up. But I don’t want to be like them, I want to be like that group of people who didn’t give up because of what they didn’t know, but kept on trying to get where they wanted to be. I want to be part of that group that practiced till get a song better, I want to be part of that group who fought against the thoughts failure, discourage, sadness or maybe embarrassment.

I want to be part of the group who said, “Its ok If I didn’t do it good this time, next time I will be better”. I want to be part of them. I want to walk against the flow, I want to be different.

I WANT TO REACH MY DREAM.

I WONT ACCEPT DEFEAT OR FAILURE.

In the midst of all these bad thing that are in my way to reach my dream, I WONT GIVE UP, I WILL KEEP ON TRYING, I WILL GET BETTER, because I now that soon I will get there, I will get there, where my heart is longing to be.
