I had a great rehearsal with Scuba Gear, as we set out to learn four previously unplayed songs for the Summer of Love show
This followed a good rehearsal with another act I'm backing up (friends, but I'm not part of their 'group' - a husband-wife duo).
Back to the good stuff, it was so gratifying working with people who had prepared for the rehearsal. The rewards are musical and, for me, at least, emotional. I have been stressing a little bit about the show, now just a week-and-a-half away. That falls away when I get engaged in making music with other people.
I get so happy when I make good music. It makes me happy to feel the human bond that forms when good music is being made.
The happiness is, of course, a by-product. I don't pursue happiness any more. I just try to stay out of my own way of enjoying the innate sense of happiness I've discovered.
We're talking boundless gratitude.

Diet Comment
I was hoping for a win, but I got a beat instead. I was on-plan 100% yesterday, but I think this might be some hangover from the weekend. Nonetheless, I expect tomorrow to be a vast improvement.
