Lost in Thought.....

There are people in this world that cross your path for only a few brief moments but touch you deeply. Then there are those whom you are blessed to have worked with, develop a bond of friendship and they touch your heart forever. You were meant to meet. You were meant to learn something from them or possibly teach them something. Everyone that crosses your path – it’s for a reason even if at the time, you’re unsure why. But they touch you in a way that simply cannot be ignored.

In our business, once the tour is over, the “tour family” is broken apart. After months and sometimes years of living together and working together – suddenly, we go our separate ways. Off to the next gig we go but the friendship and the connection always remain. And you know the world is a better place simply because they’re globe trotting this earth, just being who they are. It seems as if forever passes before our paths cross again but when they do – it’s as if no time has passed at all. We reminisce over the continents we explored and discovered together. We remember the crazy fans begging to do absolutely ANYTHING to meet the band we both worked for. Laughing together and bitching about the tour. Paths cross to simply reveal that time sometimes stands still, as if we saw each other only yesterday.

Today, I learned of an artist, for whom I once worked, and his assistant, who were in a plane crash. Tragically, one didn’t survive. Horrifically, one was badly injured. I can’t stop thinking about either of them. My heart goes out to Chris. My prayers for a speedy recovery go to Travis. My thoughts and prayers go out to their families.

Travis is an amazing man who has always been kind to me, loving towards his family & friends.

Little Chris is a sweetheart of a man who was always there for everyone & loved by all. He will sadly be missed.

Have faith. Have strength. Paths will cross again.
