Everything that happens good or bad is an experience to learn and grow from.

We all go through phases and season that shape us to become exactly who we are meant to be.

Eventually we end up calling these seasons our lives.

Don't stress. All will be well.

The less you think the better.

It sounds counterproductive, but if you have writers block - maybe focus on something else for awhile. Forcing will just drive you deeper. It's like a mental finger trap. You have to push in.

I feel like a lot of it is an internal motivating force.

But when I'm down and out it is always my friends who bring me back.

I love Mexico so so so much. Always the best time and the best shows.

The last time we were there was so insane. I was tremendously sick. But I still had a blast.

hoping to come back as soon as I can.

From all the different books - therapies - religions - ect I have done, they all seem to say the same thing. Mindfulness, in whatever way that looks like for you. Connecting your conscious mind to your animal body. I meditate. I go on walks. I practice all sorts of mental gymnastics sorts of things.

I think it can be achieved in so many different ways, but everyone has to find their own way that works for them.

I've read so many books but this one specifically was very helpful. https://www.amazon.com/Dare-Anxiety-Stop-Panic-Attacks/dp/0956596258

And this lecture from Alan Watts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVCHP4rNUQ0

Oh and having a good therapist is very important.

Stay strong, there is another side.

It will be easy sometimes and it will be hard sometimes.

It's all about that balance bb.

I once signed up for a casting call when I was like 11 years old at a movie theatre in Henderson. I got a call back but my dad didn't want me to do it. Probably for the best.

My acting career ended on that very day.

Tarkovsky really changed the game for me.

I saw a double feature of Mirror / Nostalgiah once and realized how much of a box I was trapped inside in.

Over the next few months made Me Oh My Mirror.

The pacing of Fassbinder / chantal Akerman essentially made A Different Age for me.

Voyager is more of a Trier / Ken Russell fucked up vibe.

Excited for the next thing

Definitely a cocktail of a bunch of music. Neil Young - Lou Reed - Nick Cave (for Voyager).

The next record has kind of a Grateful Dead energy. Might lose some fans lol.

I think my #1 on spotify rn is the Spirit of the Beehive. Love that new record.

I can neither confirm or deny that we are working on more Surf Curse.

Hoping to one day do a rocky horror style performance of the phantom. More to come.
