No Mud, No Lotus
The art of happiness is also the art of suffering well.
- Thích Nhất Hạnh
I’m very grateful to still have the opportunity of sharing my music with the world. I’ve battled against debilitating chronic back pain since injuring myself in a sports trauma eighteen years ago. In plain talk - my spine has been fucked ever since.
My cervical vertebrae were fused in a surgery years ago, but I've rarely discussed, publicly or privately, my ongoing plight with this wickedly pernicious of enemies. In 2021, I herniated three more disks. One year later, I wrote “Dinosaurs.” I felt it was important to release this single.
We all "pay the ransom" in some way, shape or form. No one gets a free ride in life.
I hope the song inspires reconciliation, courage, and even peacefulness whenever your own "dinosaurs get mad."
When we know how to suffer, we invariably suffer much much less. I remind myself all the time whenever trapped in the "perils of my dark despair."
No mud, no lotus flower.
So…let it roll, man.
