Bad Days

Everyone has them.  Lawyers, doctors, janitors, teachers, electricians, computer programmers... you get the idea.

It's really easy to keep your head up when things are going well.  But what about when they suck?  What happens when the songs you loved now sound like a total waste of time?  How do you carry yourself when you feel like there's no light at the end of the tunnel...?

Well... you write a blog about it.  Then you pick up your guitar and play and love the fact that you have this amazing life.

Sounds like a plan...

Bad Days

We all have them.  Everything goes wrong and all at the same time and you try to keep your head above water but there's no time to catch your breath and all you want to do is absolutely nothing.

Then doubt creeps in.  What's the point?  It hasn't happened yet, so what makes you think it's ever going to happen?  You're writing a blog post about failing when you should be analyzing what you did wrong and figuring out how to be better and practicing guitar and working on lyric writing and crafting that perfect song that conveys everything in your head just perfectly so that the audience understands and connects and applauds and stands and cheers...

Bad day.  First of many.  Nothing and everything to do with music.

Just go play guitar, Glynn.  Forget about everything else and pick up your guitar and play and sing and connect and get past the bad day because we all have them and they don't define us but they do provide opportunities to grow and learn and get that much closer to our goals.

Just hug her, tell her how much you love her, and sing her to sleep...
