I guess the key is to really listen to what it is you truly need. |
I have always loved the process of making the music, reading the letters from the fans who get married to my music, have children to my music and play my music at their funerals. |
I have found that if I don't take this time daily, I feel a bit lost, scattered and mentally worn at the end of the day. |
I have, unfortunately, in the past years not stopped when I needed to. I've hit the wall but kept going. |
I know that the internet has helped a new world audience find me. |
I learned again that the mind-body-spirit connection has to be in balance. |
I never took a music lesson in my life, it just came naturally. |
I spend 15 minutes to an hour reading by myself. |
I want to make people stop and think and react and hopefully fall in love! |
I'm at a stage in my career where I know I have something to offer. I've been on the road half of my life. I love the idea of being able to share this wisdom. |
I'm going to be turning 40 this year and celebrating my 20th year in the music business. |
I've learned lately that no one is going to hand me a permission slip and tell me to take time out for me. |
If I can make a connection, one connection, to any one listener in the world, I consider that successful. |
It sounds corny, but I've promised my inner child that never again will I ever abandon myself for anything or anyone else again. |
It took me 36 years to be able to be by myself and like it. |
