-- Spending most of my life on the internet and the computer, I have always found a great reprieve in media. It wasn't until the end of 2005 and the beginning half of 2006 I became enveloped with, at that time--twelve year old ears could only explain as the most euphonious and mesmerizing sounds to graze my eardrums. Finally! Music and a community that sparked joy and a greater understanding of other people to connect with. Music that I could identify with and express myself with. I've been a very _deep thinker and observer of life. Sitting zazen throughout my developing years gave me such a ease at letting go A majority of that aspect was developed from the countless amounts of traumatic experiences I have had.
-- My Chemical Romance has been the only constant in my life that hasn't changed. I never once forgot my intense love for this band even through a Traumatic Brain Injury-- [Diffuse Axonal Injury]..--
-- When Welcome to the Black Parade debuted, in October of 2006, it had became a full blown obsession. I have owned and lost so many pieces of rare merch in my lifetime that it just solidifies and reinforces the law of detachment and being able to let go. I am lucky enough to have gotten to see them in December 2010, during their Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys and got to meet & and get autographs from _1stFrank Iero and then _2ndGerard Way as well as _3rdMikey Way. However, Ray Toro did not stop through the line of fans.
I had to been 16 at this time.
