Approximately two years ago, on November 1, 2011, my fingers graced the key board and the mouse clicked ‘publish’ for my first post at LTMPblog.com.

Since then I’ve seen great successes, massive set backs, glorious moments, rough days, holy days, and a mix of almost every human emotion we can experience. I’m sure you share the same story over the last 24 months as well. Nevertheless, every weekday morning, with very few exceptions, I’ve shown up here in the rawest state possible to give some generosity of thought on the pursuit of making music with our lives, families, and businesses.

Today marks my 500th post at LTMPblog.com.

You may have just found these thoughts. If so, welcome. Or you may have been here from the start. If so, thank you.

For me, the most beautiful aspect of this blog is that the original hope is 100% fully intact: that this would be a place we all would – together – be moved, molded, and changed into the musicians we’re all meant to become.

Thank you for walking with me on the path to better, greater, and more meaningful music for our days.

We’re just in the beginning of this symphony that’s unfolding and it could take 1, 500, or 10,000 thoughts for this blog’s mission to be fulfilled.

Whatever the case, I’ll be here.

LTMP.
