Re: Need all of your help....urgently!!!
My son is 14 years old. I wish he had the drive and determination that you have. I am also going to agree with everyone else on this matter. There is nothing wrong with chasing a dream. There is also nothing wrong with having a back up plan either. I only differ in that I am a dream chaser. That doesn't make my wallet swell, but my heart always holds all the wealth it can bear.
I can tell you this; Life is short, sometimes too short, and opportunities often present themselves at really strange times in our lives. For you, at the age of 14, the beginning of a dream is unfolding. Do you let it go in favor of the more stable route, only to long for it later when it is no longer an option? If the new school teaches all of the basics (three r's) in addition to music then what could be stopping you? Chase the dream. Don't give up. The people that we see reach the pinnacle of their profession are the ones who never gave up their dreams. Not even once, not even for a moment.
As long as people inhabit the earth, they will need someone to make music. They say that music is a sense for the ears. I say not true. Music is for our souls. It makes us laugh, cry, rejoice, remember and forget. It brings people together. It is a tangible intangible. Even the deaf can feel music. The blind can see music. It is a love this is never lost, a sunrise to every dark night. It is a profession that instills passion like no other. It is timeless.
If you feel this strongly about you music, then the choice is simple.
The best of luck to you young man,
