The Return ITS TIME

The Return So here it is after tears and years of hard work pushing it to the limit I find myself with the RETURN back to Florence Italy to Re-establish Myself... Not exactly a course I would recommend for the weary where you roll up your sleeves and do what you have to in order to pay for a house, but the sacrifices were many and now well worth it. It seems my life runs in cycles of fourteens 84-98 were formative years in Italy,then 99-2014 NYC Sleeves up, now 2014 onwards,. certainly bearing fruit from the last 2 cycles and new challenges Its Time. Leads me to quotes which assisted me throughout, Its not what knocks you down its how you get up. Il gioco vale la candela the game is worth the candle you gotta do what you gotta do. Bloom where your planted Thank You Nicole my daughter who dealt with a period of being grown up by her grandparents for we didn't want to uproot her with a move to the USA in her teens Love you for growing up fast and developing into a wonderful person full of positive sensations and responsibility add the joy that you bring to others you are a special remarkable person who at times where it was hard for you, still pulled us uphill withstanding so much. You spent alot of time without us these next periods I promise to dedicate to you. Its Time My wife who through everything always knew what she was doing and who holds this dream come true of a family unified ., i know i was here and there at times but never lost the vision and share the same dream.....my intentions were always to make our situation better. you bring us all together you hold us all together you taught me so much and now its time for this return. My NYC family who loves as they can and put up with alot of my here and theres but basically understood my two countries and lives and gave me opportunity to sort it out.

Delivering Art

Time and time again, I have decided to pull out my guitar write some music, enter some audition and Pipe dream as my friends say. Some expressions can basically offset this like" you gotta be in it to win it," "put it out there" "another iron in the fire". There is truly something to be said about the decision process and journey, more so then the destination or final result of delivering your art. Most important is the excercise itself and dedication to the decision yeah yeah we all want to win and sometimes you just wanna say ###%$#@ k me, when it does not pan out. Then you pass through all the anxieties of why it didnt come to fruition why i didnt make the final result again f u ^%$%# k me. We must spare ourselves this pain through understanding that while we may have not obtained the dream results, our decision discipline diligence and dedication to deliver art truly makes us winners. We have trained our spirit to believe, we have sent a vibration to the universe which strangely bounces back at us with something, this is where we win. My latest attempt was relative to a Baseball Reality show MLB FANCAVE, where I created a video , wrote an essay and tried to make the first round or top 50 videos. All of this, everything was done on my smartphone filming editing and distribution . I became a twitter tumbler instagram Social Media savvy. My energy was flying I felt great everyone who came in contact with me was reeling in my positive energy I created a vaccum of buzzing happiness. No doubt, alot of the people whom I came in contact with were vibing and feeding off this . Everything around me was pointing to successful results serendipity had me bumping into people who for some reason were appearing and involved in some aspect with baseball. My favorite songs were on the work radio, my favorite positive numbers combinations I was noticing on license plates, cable boxes and kitchen clocks everything seemed vibing great. Catching the bus was perfect, my favorite soup was at the diner it just seemed that all was meant to be and all was, but not as an anticipation of a Yes you made it but more as a confirmation of just being in a positive state existing and living in a happy appreciative way with gratitude. Then came the final 50 selection and I was not there, ok I headed down the depressing staircase to the bathroom to hang my head once again in defeat, to say my @#$%k ks but somehow i could not sink for more then 2 minutes for the exercise of delivering my art taught me so much. I was energized I learned how to use Social Media and make films and edit with unfamiliar technology, i created positive sensations through out my daily existence and that seeped into others with whom I came into contact with. Avoid the anxiety's of the why not? and how comes? bathe in the things you learned the spirit you created. Persevere and remember its meant to be. I was asked afterwards to manage a blogspot for a friends sport blog Twitter account who saw my video and we became friends again and reestablished ourselves what i am saying alot comes out of it disguised at times or unknown to us and different from our initial desired result but strange enough something else opens. Deliver your art , this is the exercise strictly adhere to this and watch the universe unfold. Enjoy the process its the journey that counts not the destination which in one way or another turns out wonderful. Vincent
