I love making music, but it isn't THAT important. Have only turned on my keyboard a few times in the past two months.
Guess I needed a break, but now I'm having trouble getting back in the mood to work. I'm thinking next month I'll start doing a few jobs, but only after I make a road trip or two to see family and friends.
I will be going to the Veteran's Home and hospital to do a freebie in a couple of weeks.
Music has allowed me to play golf or fish during the days for many years. That's something for which many people work all their lives toward, then get too old or infirm to really enjoy.
At this point I'd much rather play some of the thousands of songs I know than work on anything new, unless something really catches my ear. Thinking about doing an album of my favorite gospel songs.
There are countless musicians/entertainers in this area who are more talented than I am, but I've been lucky enough to be one of the very few who have actually made a decent living doing something I would be doing if I didn't have to make a living!
Very thankful for that, and most of all for my wife, who never tried to change me or dissuade me from playing music for a living!
