Apart from all the creative inspiration, I can say that I was raised by a couple of very violent parents. Purple Rain came out when I was 13, and things were at their worst. When I saw that movie, I'd found my hero. And I don't know where I'd be today, if I hadn't been able to occasionally tell myself:
"Baby, I'm a Star, You might not know it now, But baby, yes I are..." |

When I first saw Prince, I was 14 and working at a record store (illegally) and I got the promo copy of For You. I saw him and I knew him. I wrote him a letter and put my phone number at the bottom. Three months later, he called me and for a moment I was thrusted into the grandest of ecstacies hearing his voice on the phone talking to me and then I crashed back down to earth when my dad got on the phone and yelled at him for calling at 11:30 at night. That pretty much sums up the story of my life (Grand Ecstacies - Crash Back Down To Earth - Thanks to Prince for enlightening me on what was to come).

Appreciate that though life may throw you into different setups, U are still th same person you always were--
You can prosper in a variety of ways-- Just look at Prince's many different bands, women, hairstyles, musical ventures to where many did not want to follow---And still he has impacted all of us in such a powerful way. Be brave and unafraid of change is what i take fr. the Purple Gospel--Everything will turn out just fine if you're following something w/your whole heart.... Even if we come up w/crap (  Jughead, the Sacrifice of Victor, 60% of Graffiti Bridge )-- You'll rebound w/something learned  ---
Like firing Tony M...  
Another lesson-- explore the joys of the human body-- preferably w/a partner-- revel in the creativity and success of a Divine design-- and do it often w/someone u care for.

LQ U r so lucky Prince called u! If he called me & my dad yelled @ him I would be even more pissed @ my dad. "There's only three things for sure in life. We're all born, we all die, and Prince will make another record on of these days." - Alan Leeds | |
