Lately things have been in a bit of a rough patch for me, far more things then I care to get into at the moment. However we'll say it this way, there have been mornings of late that it's been very hard to get myself out of bed in the morning to face the.
Yet starting yesterday, it's been slightly better. I can honestly say that it's gotten better for me personally each of the last two days. Nothing is as hard as it seems, not matter what I'm finding and there is always some level of hope. Just a matter of which way it leans. Now with all that said, I've come to realize that the issues I an bothered with are still there. They are not just going away, but they can be managed with a fair amount of work on my part. Well and some good planning, mixed in with some patience. Not that I am known for patience mind you, but I can exercise it from time to time and when it's a must.
What I think that I'm saying here mostly though is that over the last few weeks one of the few things I've enjoyed still has been listening to music. Playing others music, and sometimes working on my own. I've received some positive feed back about an mp3 I posted and today I actually put it to sheet music somewhat. Which is something that in the past has been rare for me to want to do, little alone actually do. So for those of you reading this and having made it to this point I say this .. regardless of what is coming your way, no matter how harsh it is there are ways of forgetting about it for just a moment. There are things you can do to merely enjoy a moment in time. For those of us here, seemingly it's music. Either playing or just listening it's a release that is needed.
Personally I encourage everyone that is a member of this site to keep listening and posting more and more music. I've found some great ideas in listening to the simple riffs or just chord progressions that are 30 seconds long or so. Inspiring at the least. In fact I'll point you to one of them right now, click here and listen to Trazodone. That's one that of the "little songs" that can take you places. Things like that are some of the better things in life.
Yes yes I shamelessly plugged someone on my friends list I know, but that piece has so many little things that show that everyone with heart and desire can make good or great music.
Hi there! Thanks for the shout-out about my song I am very glad to know that my music can inspire and that it is enjoyed. I agree with everything you say in this blog. I know I can always find solace in music when I am having a rough time. UG is just the place to do that I look forward to hearing more of your mp3s as you record and post them. Peace and respect to you!
