Pursue your wildest dreams

Lately within my own life I have noticed that people have given up on they're dreams or quit on them all together. Most of this is due to the fact that people think they're dreams should happen over night.... Guys! it wouldn't be called a dream if everyone could reach it. Through my own research people work years to obtain that true happiness within what they're dreams imply. It's good to have a dream but to make it easier set smaller goals that will you  help achieve your dream in the long run. remember  a dream is something that you enjoy and want so much you will do anything to achieve it, its something you enjoy and never want to let go of. here's  an example  if you're like me and want to be a recording artist my small time goal right now is to record a single, even though it sounds simple its putting me one step closer to my overall dream.dream. Don't ever lose your focus you're going to have people who hate but if it's important to you then nothing should stop you from it.

Keep going life gets better....everything happens for a reason.

High school is one of the most challenging times of you're life. When your stressed it seems like it will never get better, you feel you will never be happy or do anything right. This is wrong!Life gets challenging at times but that doesn't give you a reason to give up. Have you ever heard the term 'everything happens for a reason" I'm a firm believer in this last weekend me and my brother went and saw the movie Project Almanac. I'm not going to spoil anything besides being a good movie it has a great message behind it. After the movie I tweeted  my response about it amazingly enough the writer of the movie actually responded to my tweet, I decided to message him and ask what the meaning behind the movie was and compare it to my own. The meaning behind him writing it was "There are no second chances." This really spoke to me because mine was "everything happens for a reason" With in life this is true think about? Imagine if you wouldn't have come to saint Joseph catholic high school? to me that means I would have never found my love for music, or the passionate and loving people within my senior class, or the knowledge that I have gained from my loving teachers. Everything has a purpose or meaning behind it like a day you accidentally woke up late and came to work late and got fired but the next month you got hired to an amazing position .. well that's not the end of the world think of it this way what if you didn't get fired you would have never got the job that you love and still be working at the place that you hate.Lets relate this to school, you fail your math test that you studied hard for the night before well maybe that means you need to change your study habits and improve your study skills. To make your week better cheeck out the song "The Adventure by angels and airways"

First Blog Info

This is my first blog so lets start out with a little background of who I am. My name is Ryan Larrabee I am a senior at saint Joseph catholic high school located in Ogden,UT. I enjoy playing and listening to music, my main instrument is guitar but i'm in the process of  learning piano and bass. My goal and dream is to write and produce music to help people through tough times. Music has helped me  get through a  lot of the problems in my every day life and reach goals that I never thought I could achieve. I like the fact that with any mood your in there is a style or genre of music for that, which can either change your whole mood or hype the state you are already in. Music has a small influence in ever ones life and that's what i love about it everyone has a common interest and can share different opinions on what others listen to its a spiritual, emotional, and chemical connection providing everyone with the company they don't have or the privacy they want.
