I feel like this song winning this esteemed contest is a win for us all, it’s a confirmation that the mission I’ve been on for 2 decades is worth it, and it’s a win for the message held firmly inside it, which is that the future for our planet and our descendants has hope and that future is in our hands, or more accurately, in our hearts.
We all make a difference.
Or rather, more poignantly, we all can make a positive difference in this world if we are following our soul purpose.
I dedicate this win to anyone out there that has been diligently pursuing their soul purpose, their dream, their passion, but have yet to really receive and feel that outside acknowledgement we all wish we didn’t crave so much.
Even if it takes a very long time, you must be driven by the joy in making the art, expressing the art and sharing the art.
That’s really what Open Mic seems to be about.
The actual sharing.
It’s very much like a mega 
Massive thanks to those that took the time to comment on my post.
Let’s face it, we do it for the comments and the connection that is born from them, don’t we?
