My life is in a state of flux right now after switching from a work in standup comedy to that of a drummer in a band playing tunes.
- I have a newer band I am in however it is a bit tumultuous right now as I try to steady my guitar player’s mind plus keep him in the game.
Some artists get genuinely caught up in their own sadness plus seem to get bogged down by it to the point where they can barely function. I feel it can stem from having lots of time on your hands, as heating plus a/c work for the business keep my mind tied up all afternoon to where I don’t have time to feel about whether I am blissful or not. My bandmate has everything he needs to be blissful; a arena to live, food to eat, a attractive girlfriend, a dog, plus a passion plus talent for playing the guitar. He works for this new business doing gigs plus makes money from local businesses when he plays outside of their arenas. All of this yet he still feels sadness to the point that it is almost paralyzing to get out of bed. He told me this the other afternoon, that he occasionally stays in bed because the fear paralyzes him into nonaction for the afternoon, like the HEPA filter sales lady told me; the whole game of life is played in the mind however if you feel about it too much you can lose the game. I feel time will reveal the answer to us with this dilemma.
