dear pearl jam and fans
I have a question. How do you know if your ment to be a musician? I once had a conversation with steve Vai after a pa. show, and he said " You got love music", but thjat doesn't say much really. Here i am, 19, and i have no clue what to do with my life, i dreamed about going to cooking school, go to a forest ranger program, but there isn't really passion about those, passion comes when im alone with my guitar. I wish there was something i could do. Its not like you just say, thats it, im going to be a rock star, and the next thing you know you have a million gigs, it doesn't work that way, so........ how does it work?? I feel i need to do something with my life, either make a dream come true and do something that i love and have passion for, or forget the idea as a whole, and go back to the kitchen.. i want to be happy, and i know that if i stay the way i am, i never will be, and these songs that im writting, they mean nothing, and i don't want to be nothing any longer. So what do I do? could i ever live with the stars? or will i always just amire them for what they are? if you have in advice, or imput,, please respond, i welcome all, even if "pearl jam" wanted to say something, that would be fine by me!!.... but really, i just need some help..

i always think about how ppl say Eddie was dictatorial... his vision was true and pure and my dear god, how they've succeeded... and now they can relax, or so it would seem
i was in a band and we could be on the radio right now... we weren't GREAT but we could've been... my priorities and personal goals however were not to follow my lifelong dream of playing music... they were instead mired in attaining the nuclear suburb dream....
well... been there done that, and while i'd never wish away the outcome of my chosen path, i do often look back at that fork in the road and wonder where'd i be if i'd really tried...
good luck
