RE: ✳️ Mel Booker Music Contest #2 ✳️ What Is Your Passion? ✳️

in #contest7 years ago (edited)

Hi Mel. My biggest passion? Well we could start by saying that my great passion is football (soccer) ... why? Since a very short age I began to realize that in my house there was a big rivalry ... my father vs my two brothers, FC Barcelona vs Real Madrid ... my father and my brothers fought to draft me into their teams, but only one game and one player was enough for me to make that important decision ... Ronaldinho Gaucho. It was May 2005 and on that occasion FC Barcelona beat Real Madrid 0-3 under a Ronaldinho football lesson, even all Real Madrid’s fans at the stadium got up to applaud and cheer him... it was the most epic thing I saw in my life. Since that day I’m a huge fan of this beautiful sport, and it has made me live unique moments… it has made me scream, cry, feel euphoric, upset, sad, desperate, anxious, and another endless emotions. And it is important to note that this rivalry is more alive than ever in my house, my two brothers vs me and my dad.

With music is entirely different, because I not only enjoy to listening it or watching concerts ...I develop my talents in it. With music I express myself, I try to speak through it, just as I try to listen what musicians want to transmit through it. Music is a divine gift. When I get angry or despair, I'm not one of those who hit the wall or give a cry to the sky, I simply connect my electric guitar and let my emotions flow through notes. Music is a language and a way of life. That's why music is not just my passion, it's my life.

Very cool @javiervasquez ! I grew up watching American Football, but now Soccer as we call it, is gaining quite a bit of popularity. As for music, yes, speaking through your instrument is the only way sometimes.

Welcome brother. I am a Barcelona fan.
I have been one since I knew what football is.
