There are two gifts my father gave me. One was to bring me to Canada for a better life, and a better opportunity. The other is in our genes. He was a worker bee. Did what he needed to do. Always getting up. Son of a farmer. Never quit. You can’t ask for much more than that. With hard work, and acceptance, and the drive to learn, everything in your power. Everything is up to you. <a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602522/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a><a rel="payment" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/2602522/support">Support the show</a>

A memoir of music, addiction, mental health, and resilience.&nbsp;An expat from small town Scotland to big city Toronto. "I write about the memories of a time in the 60’s, as a child immigrant to Canada, from a small town in Scotland. How the culture we found here affected us, and me ultimately, mostly through music.I write about my addiction, something that took hold of me for over thirty years, how I used alcohol (mostly) to deal with and mask my depression and mental health challenges. I write about how I came out the other side, alive, and still upright.&nbsp;Sobriety is when the real work starts.I am a songwriter, musician and podcaster as well.&nbsp;A speck of dust in the universe with access to a keyboard."
