It’s hard to believe I’ve been steering the ccMixter ship for 10 years! At this time 10 years ago, I was filled with great excitement — at the opportunity to help shepherd our community and CC licensed music into its next chapter.

Looking back at who I was as a person takes an honest lens. I had a good heart with all of the right intentions, but many of my flaws and mistakes are so obvious to me now. I’ve worked to grow and evolve since then — and I’ve learned there is always a new mountain to climb. 10 years from now, I imagine I’ll be able to see myself even more clearly.

I wrote “Good Intentions” by referencing Spinmeister’s oh so very awesome samples “ Techno Twang” from 2009. HERE is my remix.

I’m so grateful to our community — you’ve taught me so much. I’ve learned how important it is to let go of the need to control, and the incredible magic that happens through collaboration.

May the next 10 years be as inspiring as these past 10. Peace!

Good Intentions

Years paved with good intentions
Naïveté how I explain my good intentions
For my mistakes
I’ve dearly paid
Journeyed to hell but returned today
Just to say there’s no time to waste on mere on good intentions

I uttered a promise standing on her grave
To bury my grief seeds and grow from the pain
Those flowers and weeds bloom and die everyday
My roots dig and stretch
Far down in the depths
Love is born from the rain

Years paved with good intentions
Naïveté is how I explain my good intentions
And for my mistakes
I’ve dearly paid
Journeyed to hell but returned today
Just to say there’s no time to waste on mere on good intentions

In my rear view mirror a replay of shame
Doing the same thing again is insane
Breaking recurrence can reset the game
In silence I wait
Ego stays at the gate
With consciousness leading the way

Looking back 10 years ago
On that road I don’t like all I see
10 years from now
Will I feel the same somehow
Evolution is made
When the constant is change
Observer is fully awake!

Years paved with good intentions
This new decade might just be made through our good intentions
And for our mistakes
We will have to pay
Might journey to hell but survive to say
That today there s no time to waste on mere good intentions

There’s no time to waste
Evolution is made
When the constant is change
Evolution is made
There’s no time to waste
There’s no time to waste
