I'm glad you're letting yourself use your strategies. Music is necessary for me these days. So much so that I have started buying hard copies because if streaming gets interrupted, that would be a hardship.
@vervain yes I'm also having those thoughts on my music and podcast episodes. They are so ephemeral
Jul 7, 2026, 8:17 PMOh thanks, I hadn't even considered podcast episodes. There's a lot.
I heard an interview of Don Was recently. He was talking about when he was young and trying to find the life he wanted. He would get discouraged and lose his way. His solution was to listen to side 2 of Wayne Shorter's Speak No Evil. That refocused him enough to continue building.
It is an example of how important art can be, how actionable.
