My ignonimous departure from my longtime job in the record store has dimmed my ardor for the time being. I need to get it back. I love records, I love music. It's just painful for me. I was disappointed by the manner of my firing, even though it has worked out really well for me. I just need to make some seperation. I'm trying to separate music from the music industry. I have been working on my spiritual practice to make things better for myself.
