RE: Joy is in the small things. We can weave magic out of the ordinary. What makes YOU happy? + An illustrated guide of some of my favourite things

It is curious today it has been a low energy for me too, I was a bit absorbed into the past where I used to make more live performances and have my own band, and damn I miss that. Now for many reasons that is on hold but my music goes on. I was about to upload a video and wanted to make a post about it (after all it's an Autumn video and everything is almost bare now) but I decided to take a break, and sipping ginger tea as I reply. Sometimes we need to indulge in a pause.

Enjoy your meal!

You're right about pause!

You're right about playing with musicians too, I miss it, but I try not to think about it, as I am not planning on doing a concert any time soon!

Nothing better than a nice cup of ginger tea to get your head straight!

hmm I think I'm about to make a cup :). Yes, I try not to think about it too. I was blessed with a cellist and a violin player that were simply outstanding, and they would translate so beautifully my arrangements. Now it's me alone, gathering and layerings things here and there. I produce my own music, edit my own videos, compose it... and it does leave little or no time to promote besides creation. So I feel like I shrunk, and I don't like to delve in the past. This is the music I do now. I need to be proud of it and know I'm enough, and the challenge of being on my own has made me improve in many ways.
