I won't give up. Even if the skies get rough.
Being a human means waking up in this world, where we all have to work and slog to put food on the table.
By the end of the writing process, which is about 80 songs per album, I look at the material and think, what's going to make a difference in someone's life.
My goal is to show everyone that they, too, can do what they love to do.
It’s strange how dreams get under your skin and give your heart a test for what’s real and what’s imaginary.
I hope everyone wakes up and appreciates life.
I’ve come to the conclusion that people who wear headphones while they walk, are much happier, more confident, and more beautiful individuals than someone making the solitary drudge to work without acknowledging their own interests and power.
You make all the fashion statements just by dressing up your mind.
But that guitar is the perfect companion to the human voice. You rest it against your gut, against your heart, and when you strum it the vibrations go outwards for all to hear, but the vibration also hits you on your body.
I call it sacred geometry. When everything's just right and it feels really balanced, so that when it unfolds to the next part, you feel totally familiar and at ease within the song.
If it's a broken part, replace it. If it's a broken arm then brace it. If it's a broken heart, then face it.
I am who I am, you are who you are, and everything else is a perception based on acceptance, deception, smoke, mirrors, and so on. It's what's between us that seems to justify our accidental identities.
...open up your heart and the sky is yours...
Surrender to life itself and you'll just be rewarded with so many things. And I've been rewarded so many times, in so many mysterious ways. So I have no reason to be disappointed with anything.
