    Music with a message: A talk with Joel Cross & Collin Hauser

    Joel Cross and Collin Hauser are two Texas native musicians that are making waves in the music industry. Not only does their music make you feel something when you hear it, I believe it carries a message. I sat down with them and asked about what motivates them to write songs with messages of love, social awareness, heartbreak and hope. These talented gentlemen both found their passion for music at an early age. At 8 years old, Collin discovered his father’s 12-string guitar under their staircase, with his older brother. He later attended the University of North Texas (UNT) for music, where he met Joel and they became friends. Collin has recently released his second EP and has toured the country with artist like Cas Haley. For Joel Cross, he says music was always around him growing up. Music was a way of life for his family. Joel’s inspiration to become a musician came as a child when he saw his father tuning and playing a guitar at church. He knew from that moment he wanted to play guitar for the rest of his life. He’s currently touring locally and nationally, he’s also recently released an EP, which you can purchase on iTunes.

  2. A Gentleman doesn't play with a woman's heart.

    A Gentleman doesn't play with a woman's heart.

    Ask yourself 3 questions:1. Are you being the best man you can be? 2. Are you living with integrity and holding yourself accountable when it comes to how you treat women? 3. Are you handling hearts with care or carelessness? There are so many broken hearts and lost souls in the world today. Why? I believe the idea of finding love and being in a committed relationship aren't taken seriously. It's our responsibility to lead with love and make smart choices when it comes to women. You can either be a part of the problem or you can be a part of the solution. A man of integrity doesn't have time for being a player, side chicks, or one night stands. Understand that your love is a gift and it's not for anyone and everyone. But also understand that it's a great gift to have a woman give you a piece of her. Whether she gives you her trust or she gives her time or her heart, you have to know that it's precious. A woman's love should be handled with care and not taken lightly. You have to see that woman with eyes of understanding and compassion. You have to look within and listen for that 'yes' in your spirit that you're ready to receive her. The worst thing you can do is keep someone around just to keep you company. That's selfish. That's not love. You're better than that. Imagine if that was your daughter. Imagine if some young man was toying with her. You wouldn't want watch her go through that kind of hurt or to date someone like that.A gentleman doesn't play with the heart of a woman. He cherishes it or he leaves it alone. Leave that woman alone if you're not certain or you know you don't see the relationship going anywhere. Don't keep her for the sex. Don't keep her because she makes you feel good about yourself. Keep her because you want her in your life. Keep her because life went from good to great since she's come around. In some cases you have to work through the fog to clearly see that yes, this is someone I want to be with. Always do the right thing and be honest. You've got to wait for that 'yes' to walk into your life. Wait for the woman who's heart you'll cherish and you'll give your all.
