I've been a musician since I was nine. I think a ghost or goblin visited me in the night. Maybe aliens abducted me, or a divine figure sent me a spiritual memo. Who knows.

Build your world around your dreams rather than trying to fit your dreams into the world you know.

How would I be doing this differently if I were WILLING to let it be easy?

The difficulties of life do not keep you from greatness. They show you to its door.

Anything you believe you have to do or become before you can be free is a denial and distraction from the truth that you are already free.

As you recognize that you already own the wholeness you seek, and no one outside you can give you more than you already are, dysfunctional situations will evaporate like bad dreams exposed to the morning sun.

Work may be your dominant thought, and joy an afterthought. But joy is your true purpose, and work the afterthought.
