2014 was such a mix of highs and lows. My high point was the trip to Hong Kong to see my BFF get married -- for sure -- though playing all my own songs at Falcon Ridge Folk Festival was a trip, too, and a real step forward for me. The lowest point was moving out from a home, a beautiful partner, and kids I adored. My sweet love didnt want to share me with a dead man and bit by bit, he closed the door on his heart. I still felt like I had work to do and stories to tell on behalf of Dave Carter, and I didnt know how to help him understand loving him and honoring the legacy werent mutually exclusive. Hard, hard transition. I thought I was getting married. I thought my beautiful man was my ticket out and away from the heavy load Ive been carrying. But it turns out its on me to lay it down. No one can save me from myself. Lessons? When an amazing opportunity like a trip around the world comes up and you dont have the money, put that sh*t on a credit card and just go. It will absolutely be worth it. And: Sing your own song. Write your own story. Maybe itll fly and maybe it wont, but it doesnt matter. Free yourself from your heavy burden. Honor your commitments. Then dont look back. Youve done well and it is enough. What are your highs and lows for the year? What did you learn? Love and gratitude to you for sharing the virtual journey with me. Blessings on us all in the Year of the Goat, 2015. Be safe out there tonight. xo tg
