Per the request of my dear friend Jessica, I give you another “Five Minute Friday” blog. This week’s prompt: “If I Knew I Could I Would…”:
If I knew I could I would be a professional singer. I say this because yesterday was my day off and I got sucked in to watching a special on Miranda Lambert. I love her sassiness, pink guitar, and her rock star flair (even though she’s a country singer.) I have “writing” talent, but I wish I could really funnel that into songwriting. I already have a blue guitar, I’ve got LOADS of sassy and I think that if given the opportunity that I just might have what it takes to take my show on the road.
I also like the fact that she’s soon to be married to Blake Shelton. That’s another part of the dream. Not only would I want to be a pro musician, I wouldn’t mind being married to one either. I’d love having a “Partridge Family” style type of family. I think it’s a reasonable dream.
I’m not sure why God gave me the talents and abilities He did and I’m not sure if just because I traveled one path that I can’t change direction now. Why shouldn’t I try? I love music so much, but instead of wanting to be a music journalist and write about it, I should actually try my hand at making some. Seriously. Why JUST write about it if you can also do it? I prefer to be in the game rather than just watching from the sidelines.
So there’s the answer to the question: if I knew I could, I would be a bona fide (?) musician. Hannah Montana had the best of both worlds and I know I can too.
