Being Southern Quotes

Being Southern and being the guy I’ve been all my life, I’ve lived more on the lighter side of life. I have a dark side, but that’s not where I come from. A lot of artists like to come from that Picture Quote #1

But, I was worried about my history being caked with that southern clay, and I subscribed to a different kind of teaching and learning in my bones and in my spirit Picture Quote #1

I began telling stories as a volunteer in my daughters’ school. But I grew up hearing stories from Cuban and Southern storytellers, and I learned a great deal by just being quiet and listening Picture Quote #1

I just like being on my own on trains, traveling.

My parents used to think I was going places, but I wasn’t, I was just travelling the trains Picture Quote #1
