The Fifth Member Of My Band Is

I'm Proud Of The Way I Rearrange And Put Things Together, Like A Chef Who Makes A Great Meal, Or A Filmmaker Who Puts Together A Story - It's Casting, Editing, Cinematography.

Im Happy To Say That At 62, I Think Ive Reached That Point Where Stuff Doesnt Bother Me As Much, And My Gratitude Level Has Gone Way Up, Especially Having Gone Through The Loss That Ive Had, And Losing So Many Of The Great Artists That I Was Close To. They Taught Me How To See It With A Grain Of Salt And A Lot Of Humor And Perspective.

I've Been Lucky Enough That I Can Gather All Sorts Of Experiences And Find Inspiration By Traveling Around And By Spending Time With People I Admire.

You Know, A Lot Of People Feel That Sobriety Is About Just Stopping Using Whatever It Was That You Appeared To Be Addicted To, But It Really Has To Do With A Way Of Looking At Your Life And Taking Accountability.

I Was Raised With The Blessing Of Being Involved With Peace And Social Justice, And The Environmental Movement. I Have My Parents To Thank For That.
