To look back over a short interval of time suggests something similar to an eternity has past. What madness it this I wonder? The time has indeed gone quickly on tour, but to feel as though the beginning was years ago and coupling that with the rapidity of the journey, some strange conflicts of perception permeate the mind’s connections to reality. We are speeding ever more into the next moments. Inside these moments we develop expectations, hopes, fulfillments of what […]
Having been partitioned from the whole mass of all potential – this being not an absolute but a relevant trajectory of focussed efforts – I have known before community. Once again I know the essence and physical boundaries of a ‘new’ community. It is a brotherhood – a band-hood. We move through the motions of learning behavioral patterns, intentions, skills, language, and proximities as we work our way across the country to perform our talents and dream-minded hopes of music […]

Five months ago I sat down and began the process to work out the details of my life.

There comes a time when the wait represents the weight. Heavy upon our shoulders we carry uncertainty and that always expanding principal of the unknowns in all their possible outcomes. Perhaps, just like that, as if it were a walk up a hill, the journey enters a clearing. This place where it opens up, the burden set for the legs to know and the lungs to supply has been brought back to a balanced and comfortable state. That I suppose […]
Our consciousness gives us the ability to debate. It also gives us the ability to be the kind of righteous that is not the proper and good kind of righteous. Being righteous and virtuous is what we should all strive for. This opens up the idea that many threads make the most colorful fabric. We can always find another way and a greater spreading of the mind. Walk steady, listen carefully, and learn about gratitude. I am sitting now on […]
This last month was heavy and offered little room to breathe and even less room to measure the distance travelled. That distance being a great one, and the outcome of having to travel such a long way is not yet known. They are like blocks of required dimension – one block is not the whole journey – one journey is not the whole story – one story is not the completed quilt of the total – and that total might […]
