I used to dream of being a famous singer. But, no one seemed to care. #Depression #Anxiety #EmotionalHealth
I first started singing when I was a child. I remember leading a song on stage in Preschool. It made the local newspaper.
I always used to write songs to sing for my family. I always used to try out for talent shows. And I always used to volunteer to sing at local events in my community.
But no one seemed to care. I had someone tell me today that they didn’t know I wanted to be a singer. They thought that I was just singing for fun. I couldn’t believe my ears. I’m heartbroken really. It’s just so frustrating when that was my original passion. I have written countless songs.
I have recorded music and uploaded some to social media. But no one took my singing seriously. The only thing that has been given proper recognizion are my books. It seems that maybe people felt I fit the mold of an author better?
But being an author wasn’t my first choice. I wanted to be singer more than anything. I am happy with being an author though. Its just that I wanted to be a singer more then an author. You know what I mean?
Anywho, it’s over now. I’m in my thirties and it seems my path has been chosen. But I plan to write a book on how I used to want to be a singer but it wasn’t taken seriously. I still write as a singer hobbyist. I even have a song out on Spotify. But even with that release it only received small numbers from family and friends. But with my books it gets big number of support.
Funny huh?
