I live with cyclical depression.
What does that mean? It’s a lot like clouds.
Some days the sky is a little cloudy. Some days it is scattered and changes rapidly. And some days (or weeks…or months) there are thunderstorms.
But, some days, I wake up and the sky is completely clear. I feel energized, I feel joyful, I feel ready to take on the entire world! I know it won’t last. And that’s okay.
Blue Sky Horizon was written on one of my “good days” when the sun was out and I felt truly happy and at peace. The work uses catchy rhythms and a pops inspired style to create a feeling of unbridled joy.
Not every day will be a great day…but we should make the most of the ones that are.
Peace, Love, and Music.
