I'm really at a loss for words to even begin to describe my feelings after reading this brilliant essay. I guess it's like I was caught in a swirling tempest that swept me across an emotional terrain that's seemingly familiar, yet unlike anything I've ever fully experienced before. The immense challenge of living an authentic life in today's world smacks us in the face with a sense of powerlessness, but as I heard you say, we somehow have to keep trying and keep caring. Thank you for your ongoing efforts.
Man, that point about how much talent has been potentially lost due to the music industry really hits hard. Also the content analogy for Worcester’s “renaissance” brought a small smile to me about a depressing and infuriating topic (a lot of your writing does that for me too)
Wow. You took me on the journey. Words well used.
Wow thank you!! Best compliment I could hope for
You really resonated with me on this one. I used to be a touring musician and this honest raw essay brought me to tears. I had to fully subscribe.
