I'm not famous, nor am I dying become an celebrity. Success means different thing to different people. We've been brainwashed by the media to think that success is defined as how much money we have, how many things we possess. You only have to look at the number rich and famous people who are generally depressed, dissatisfied and unhappy with their miserable, wretched lives to see what I mean.\"<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<br />\r\n\"Quiet Determination\" by Kory Livingstone.<br />\r\nKory has released six albums on his own independent record label, Crestant Records.
