Here Again…
Hello Everyone. How are you doing today? I am feeling wonderful which has become the norm for me in recent years. Thanking the higher power for that. Amen.
That said, I wanted to fill you in on my most recent thoughts and feelings. Through the last 8 years or so, I have been meandering with thoughts of what I want to do in life. All of this experience, both the hands on and the spiritual have guided me to where I am today. And you could say that tomorrow will be the culmination of where I have been up until then.
I know I want to teach violin as well as progress on the instrument myself. Amen. There are no limits to what this can bring, in my opinion. I recognize I have work to do on the instrument, and I intend to do it, bringing enlightenment not only to myself, but to my students. Amen.
Today I am seeing where my heart has led me, which is out of several old dreams and into a new direction. Amen. That said, it seems there is nothing left to do but follow my heart. Amen.
I have applied to two new teaching positions in the Houston area. I am hoping to land one or both of them, depending on the load of students each school has on the starting date. Amen.
I am hoping to have a chance to earn enough money to live on my own again in Houston, or somewhere in the Greater Houston Area. Amen.
I will continue to practice the violin throughout whatever comes. It’s tough living on an island near the coast of Texas, and finding violin students nearby. There are no orchestra programs where I live, and I would need to drive at least half an hour to get to where they begin, relative to the Greater Houston Area. I live too far away from the Big City to have the necessary number of students to move out on my own. Therefore, I am applying to positions of which a significant drive is necessary in hopes of eventually moving closer to the location where I work.
Ultimately, and this is perhaps years down the road, I would like to have my own studio of students that come to my resident studio for their lessons. That would be ideal, but is not possible at this time, because I live far away from Houston in my parents’ abode. And, my parents won’t allow me to teach in their house, for whatever reason. Amen.
So, wish me luck with these applications. I really love teaching and would like to do it again as soon as possible. Amen.
Finally, I am relearning how to save money these days. I fell off my horse with this ability years ago. I used to save quite well, but have grown accustomed to spending frivolously in recent years. Partly, in fact, because most of my support comes from my parents. This will change hopefully sooner rather than later, as soon as possible in fact. I am ready to be on my own again, but it won’t happen until I get my spending and earning on the same path as where I want to live and thrive. Amen.
Anyway, feel free to share your thoughts with me through the contact option of this website, or on Facebook if you would like to communicate that way.
Have a wonderful day.
Best Wishes,
Travis Galbraith
