Back in 2009 I rode my motorcycle out to Richmond. It was one of the best vacations I've ever taken. I explored the city during the day by myself, went out with Matt and Katie in the evening, and did a show with the RCC. This is a picture from Byrd Park. I sat on the bench, read, and ate a granola bar. It was a warm September afternoon. It was a simple moment but a perfect one. I felt free and comfortable and relaxed.
Whenever I feel stressed or frustrated or stuck I remind myself to pause. I remember the many things I have to be grateful for. And sometimes I close my eyes and think back to a moment of joy.
From time to time you need to take a vacation from your thoughts.
