You can be a control freak only when you have weak people around you.
Music plays a very important role in my life. I'm a frustrated musician. I play the drums.

I am placed in situations with opportunities in those situations that others are not. I don't believe that that is happenstance. I believe that there is a God that has a plan for me.
