I am Tired
i am tired of running....i am tired of being afraid
i am tired of being afraid of getting broken hearted
left alone in the pouring rain
i am tired of all the little things nagging at my mind
when i should listen to my heart...to love, it is not blind
i am tired of doubting what is before me and dwelling on the past
i am tired of running away, without opening my eyes, running fast
i want to live for today and love for the moment
i am tired of being afraid to quit running
but i am more afraid to never know love....as it dies, burning
i am tired of being afraid of getting broken hearted
left alone in the pouring rain
i am tired of all the little things nagging at my mind
when i should listen to my heart...to love, it is not blind
i am tired of doubting what is before me and dwelling on the past
i am tired of running away, without opening my eyes, running fast
i want to live for today and love for the moment
i am tired of being afraid to quit running
but i am more afraid to never know love....as it dies, burning

do u ever?
do you ever wake up one day just totally feeling confused and out of whack? not sure of where you belong or why you're here.
like...even though it's sunshiny all around, there seems to hover a dark and foreboding gray cloud of despair...just lurking and waiting to pounce when you are at your weakest. just waiting for the right time to strike.....then bam!!
if you know the feeling....i felt like this on friday, yesterday. i just couldn't shake it. the world around me went on as normal, yet in my immediate surroundings, above me, below me, touching my sides...i could feel the pressure....heavy and burdensome, as though its entire purpose and will was to bring me down, break my spirit....lol...like the whole universe was out to get me...haha
do you ever have days like that?
i don't know what brought it on...i don't really know why i felt so blue, but i couldn't seem to shake the feeling. i mean, other than feeling blue emotionally, i felt fine. most days, i'm determined to keep a positive outlook and do my best to be cheerful and optimistic, but this was one of those days that just overwhelmed me....it threw me completely off balance. i didn't understand my own emotions and why i was feeling them....is that strange or what?.....maybe i'm normal, and it was just one of those days that we all have from time to time.
no matter, i don't like having them, and i hope days like that never return. i don't know about you, but i like when the sun shines on me and all around me.

~A bit about the Artist~
JadeeValley~Where Music Meets Soul
Just Help Productions...Help isn't a Word, it's an Action
jadeeslayton.com
Jennifer D. Slayton, Jadee Slayton, Hearing Impaired Singer/Songwriter, Artist of All Kinds. Member of ASCAP. I have three demos out of Nashville, TN for Original Lyrics (though, that is not what I have playing here) After graduating college, I obtained my Managing Cosmetology License in the state of WV, which I still hold. I was nominated for inclusion in the 2007-2008 "Honors Edition" of the Cambridge Who’s Who among Executive and Professional Women.
My very first painting! I painted this around age 6-7. I even knew to sign the back. I’ve always been an Artist and always will :)
In the past three years, I have sold over three hundred paintings worldwide to both private and corporate collections. You can find my work across the USA, (including Hawaii and Puerto Rico) Europe, Australia, Canada, and more. In 2005-2007 I achieved top-seller status for the Non-Profit Org., Feed the Children and eBay Powerseller status for sales of my Original Artwork. I have received achievement awards for my Original poetry, which has been published to private collections. My Original Oil Painting and Poem, "The Soldier" sold in 2005 and was dedicated to Fort Carson, USA to be displayed in a place of honor.
I worked hair/wigs with Bernia Ardia of Las Vegas on the Kiss Me Kate Musical. I also worked wig and wardrobe for many other theatrical productions such as Seussical the Musical, Grease, Fame, David Copperfield, plus more. I worked stagehand for concerts such as Toby Keith, Bob the Builder, and more.
Besides Music and Art, I enjoy being a Mom, being a Christian, Poetry, Writing, Photography, Web Art and Design (I make my own banners, backgrounds, logos, and such) and Philanthropy. I love a GOOD CAUSE!
Jadee’s "Create Yourself, Don’t Hate Yourself" Campaign
I write, sing, and perform my Original Songs. For the past 10 months I have been creating and editing my own videos for the internet. I record with my digital camera, my guitar, microphone, and amp until I can get recording equipment. So mostly what you’re hearing with my music now is its roots...its rawness. My Soul!
I have loved music since early childhood. When I was about five, my parents bought me a little wooden piano, made just like a real piano, only it was made small for a child. I would play on that little piano for hours. It was a best friend of mine during those times! One of my best memories was dressing up as Minnie Pearl and reenacting a scene from the Grand Ole Opry. I was about eight, maybe nine years old, and had I found a hat and placed what I thought looked like a tag hanging down in front. I was putting on a show in the evening for my mom and sister, and when my sister introduced me, I came out with my hat and said, "I’m Pearly More". I said her name backwards, and everyone laughed, so it embarrassed me. Thinking back on it now, I laugh too.
When I was old enough, I was singing school Christmas songs in front of the tree during holiday time, per my mom’s request. She would have me sing for her and the family. Though my mom has been deaf all my life, she always wanted to hear me sing. She couldn’t really hear me with her ears, but she heard me with her heart. Now, she has a cochlear implant, but I’ve never sang for her. That’s something I’m gonna have to do! They say I’ll need a cochlear implant one day, as my loss is progressive. No matter, I’m gonna sing!
After trying out and making it, All County Choir was my favorite subject in school..lol, and I was singing in my spare time in church on Sundays and such. My two cousins and I would practice each week so we could get up in front of the church and sing "Jesus Be a Fence All Around Me". (My favorite song of all time, the first song I sang in a public performance around age six) I played the flute in junior high, but didn’t care for it much. Now, I enjoy playing the guitar, electric and acoustic, and the piano and keyboard (the piano is my favorite instrument) I am self-taught in all aspects of my art. Funny thing is....I play by ear, but I can’t hear very well. Where’s the logic in that..lol
When I was seventeen, I started losing my hearing due to hereditary, progressive nerve deafness. (My mom and brother are deaf and hearing impaired as well) I had to wear my first hearing aid, and I had to adapt with what that required of me. Change and acceptance of myself and what made me different. I thought...my passion, the one thing in life I’d rather do more than any other, was unattainable (or so I had myself believing)....
I thought, who hears of a singer who can’t hear? The fear of needing my hearing to make music, but not having it, scared and discouraged me from following my dreams. I chose to express my artistic desires through other outlets that didn’t require my hearing. Cosmetology was the beginning, then, I became an ebay powerseller for sales of my Original FireFly Artwork, The FireFly Painter (JadeeValleyGallery) I have sold over three hundred paintings worldwide to private and corporate collections. But still, no matter what I did, I felt like something was missing. Like I wasn’t doing the right thing in life, and it was making me miserable.
Then, in the past year, I realized....time was going by and I still had the same lifelong dream.....TO SING!! it was never going away, it wasn’t fading or getting faint in my heart...it was still there, the same it had always been my entire life. I wanted to sing and make music! As much as I love painting on canvas and creating artwork, it was boring me, and I would catch myself thinking of music. I was still afraid because of the hearing impairment, but finally, I came to a conclusion...Music doesn’t come from the ears, it comes from the heart and soul!
Equipped with with plenty of soul and lots of heart, I decided to follow that dream of mine! So here I am :)
Thanks for stopping by my space! It means the world :D
Have a fabulous day ((smilez and huggz))

Happiness is.......
my tidbit of the day.........in my opinions and beliefs :)
i’ll admit, maintaining this cheery, upbeat, positive attitude is hard sometimes.
on my bad days...i wake up, and if i feel a lil blue...i give myself a
U CAN DO IT chitty chat!!
life is bad when you allow it to be!! (i tell myself)
HAPPINESS is a state of mind, no one can create it for you, but you.
it doesn’t come from the material items we possess. it doesn’t come from the style we have, the clothes we wear, the cars we drive, the friends we have, the houses we live in or the size of the houses we live in. it doesn’t come from how popular we are at school, or how far we move up the ladder in our employment. no matter how much money we have in the bank, and even if we get to live in the best neighborhoods and go to the best doctors, send our kids to the best universities.....still.............
HAPPINESS comes from inside out, not outside in :)
HAPPINESS is created by YOU for YOU!!
Happiness does not come from outside sources and pleasures, that most times are only a temporary fix. Happiness is not created by others and then just given to us. Happiness is not bought and paid for with our credit cards.
HAPPINESS is a STATE of MIND!
Believe it~Achieve it
if i wake up and allow myself to feel bad (as in feel bad in my mind..ex, feel bad about myself, negative thoughts, low self-esteem, feeling like i’m no good, feeling like i’m not worth anything to the world...human emotions and insecurities) then i’ll most likely have a bad day where things are gonna go wrong, and i’m gonna end up feeling worse. when i feel like it’s not gonna be that great of a day, i do my best to talk the blues away. you’d be surprised at how much you can convince yourself to believe.
i have a theory....good spreads good and bad spreads bad.
if you have good thoughts, you give out positive energy, and in return, positive energy comes back to you...like a boomerang effect in the universe, and vice versa. if you focus on bad thoughts and negative energy, you will send out a negative vibe into the universe, and in return, receive a negative vibe...or as some like to say, "bad luck" or a "curse"
i don’t believe in these things.."bad luck" and such because that would mean we don't all have a fair chance at a good life..i believe we create our own bad days by allowing our minds to believe it’s bad. the first bad thing that happens and we get in a whole state of mind for the entire day where we’re thinking negative thoughts and end up causing more bad things to happen because we’re giving off a negative energy. i believe everything in the universe has to be in perfect balance and harmony, including our very thoughts. if they’re negative, we’ll get negative consequences, if they’re positive, we’ll get positive consequences.
it all starts with believing in yourself and never doubting and never giving uP!! the human mind is a powerful thing, capable of much more than we realize. if you truly believe in happiness for yourself and believe that it really exists for you and your life, then you will have happiness. when i feel low, i think of happiness and what it means to me.
U CAN DO IT!! yAy for today, we’re alive and that’s what is most important :D
