Is it simply a case of trying until something sticks? Or is accepting a lack of talent a relief over chasing an impossible dream? EvolAnthWell, it’s not necessarily a lack of talent. I think everybody has talent, but you have to hone it. The more you do it, the more you like it. And when you have talent, you want to do it, you know?

What things did your parents say to you that make you proud and have stuck with you over the years? Fran_MMalice: Creating that song was a very emotional time and it cut real deep, but to be able to journal the grief from losing both our parents into a piece of art was also healing. I believe it’s a song that is going to resonate with a lot of people, because whether we like it or not, most of us are going to end up outliving our parents.
