When I was on the road as a full-time musician, I let life lead me. I was young and inexperienced and didn’t have a care in the world. I was wide-eyed and vulnerable and knew nothing. I lived mindfully, moment to moment and never thought how things might turn out. Life was full of wonder, excitement and surprise! […]
For many years I didn’t like myself. Even though I was cocky, arrogant and egotistical, underneath it all, I was insecure. So I abused myself.
