I am lying in bed wide awake with a great deal on my mind. In the last week what seemed like something I had put behind me has become so front and center in my mind that I can think of little else. I am of course talking about a return to radio.
I have been approached about taking a position at a radio station I worked at once before. It's a place where I am VERY comfortable and a place that I consider home.
In my waking dreams I can feel the board at my fingertips....I can hear show ideas bouncing around in my head and I can even picture the faces and feel the warmth of the hugs from people I once left behind.
The dreams are now so vivid that I sometimes awake suprised that I am still in Florida. Still unemployed, still dreaming of something that is so far away, yet seems so close I can feel it.
Tonight I went to EPCOT (Walt Disney World) with my old radio buddy Sparxxx and his wife Donya. We had a blast talking about the good old days and our futures. As we sat down at the Electric Umbrella for a late dinner he asked me, "so...are you going?" I replied, "I don't know." He looked at me as if I was mistaken and as he placed his hand over his "gut" said, "No...you know....do you feel it?"
The truth is, I do feel it. I feel like it's time to return...time to do it right. Time to take the experiences of 8 years on the air and start setting a course for the rest of my life. No more excuses, no more putting my future in jeopardy....it's time to live the dream I've had from a very early age.
Mister Program Director (I'm leaving names and locations out for now) give me the word....and in the iconic lyrics of the old Willie Nelson song Illl be, "...on the road again, I can't wait to get on the road again!"
This matter is in God's hands...his will be done. Goodnight and God Bless!
Thanks for reading...
