“There’ll never be another David Ruffin”
“David Ruffin has a Son?”
“Does he sing like his Daddy?”
“What’s it like being the son of such a great singer?”

…it happens! And I’ve grown to appreciate being connected (or Compared) to such a rare Gem of a voice! I’ve learned to embrace the pain in his song! I’ve also learned that he pasted onto me both the Blessings and Burdens.
Those same experiences have given me a look into the more meaningful elements of those events! Granting me an ability to align words in ways that not everyone can do, but potentially relate to!
I write to fill the spaces! The gaps and or voids! Or to give life’s inconsistencies and surprises a little less sting… or a little push into a more palatable, pliable or shapeable form.
I guess here is where I am actually & happy to be – The Middle Man!
Music is, by all accounts…designed to make us better! To heal in some way!
To feel “a part” of something other then ourselves. More importantly to be reminded or perhaps learning for the 1st time that WE are
….not alone in our feelings/thoughts, 
It’s a Ruffin thing… it’s most definitely in our Blood!
Here to Help!
