A very common feeling amongst friends. We all sometimes lack direction, or we tend to put too much pressure on ourselves when it dcomes to creating music. I think as the years progress, we realize that there are important things then playing the guitar, and that it's not the only outlet for creativity. However, in such a confusing world, and with the many conversations that we're forced to endure everyday, the guitar for me is as natural as breathing. In other words, we can only go with oxygen for so long.

Although we tend to appreciate it more after weeks without use, the more I play, the more I experiement, it feeds my hunger. It gives me such a strong impetus to top myself like never before. And nothing can replace that feeling!
