Picking Up the Pieces
Picking Up the Pieces is the film being produced to document my life. As I sit here thinking about what music I would like to use for the soundtrack, I start to think about all of the things that I have been through in my 40 years of life. All of those hurdles that I have had to climb over and the songs start to flow through my mind.
