I now understand that there are many reasons why some people do not communicate with persons that they do not know very well. There is a trust factor which can only be earned for some people, and I understand that. I blindly create peace and make friends with folks without any hidden agenda, but not everyone is like me, and some cannot be trusted like others, so I completely understand why some people do not communicate openly. Some crazy people will use things against people and seek financial gain from them, or put them down because of the way they act or look, or dislike them because of personal beliefs, etc. I could never be that way, however, because those people are controlled by the enemy, and I am controlled by God.

These previous statements have alot to do with relating to people and putting yourself in others shoes. As musicians, we should try to understand others and why they are the way they are, so that we can be better friends to people.

Respect.

Peace,
JD

You're not the only one

Nah, nobody missed anything. I have been trying to get in contact with some people, and I have learned that you cannot approach everyone the same way, even if I feel that I am doing it the right way. I just thought I would share it.


Peace,

Is this tied back to the Clinton/Prince thread?

IN MY OPNION, I think Prince gets a TON more communications than Bill Clinton... no offense to Bill, but, Prince has been a public figure for over 20 years, Bill's been a national public figure for only 10. And, to that, Bill's moment in the sun has come and gone, and now he's even less in the public eye.

All's I'm saying is, don't get it down that Prince doesn't contact you just yet. I'm sure he's got tons of folks trying to contact him on a daily basis, most genuine, but I'm sure there's some crazy stalkers in there too, so he probably doesn't see 1% of his mail.

If it's NOT related to all that, then hey, ignore all this.

I ain't mad at nobody. I was just letting everyone know that it was my fault for going about things the way that I wanted to, and I need to have some patience. I am very thankful to have so many people that helped with my goal and my ideas. Even though there are many people on here with many different personal views, the Org has some very good people, especially here in the Musicians forum.


Peace, I love y'all,

JD
