For me music is a centering device putting me in touch with myself and in tune with a larger Universal flow or Tao. Music is a Practice, a tool to communicate. My highest moments in this life have been sharing that musical experience with my fellow earthlings. Pay has come once in awhile but it's not my main focus. Pay would be great but until that ship comes in I'll settle for being in the flow and keeping that creative mystery alive.
