Thanks for making me remember my mentors. At first, I was trying hard to think who they might be, as there were several people that I looked up to and tried to emulate, but didn’t really match your definition of mentor. Then I recalled my elementary school band director, Mr Bradley. My gratitude to him had slipped my mind until your segment.
Matthew 25:26. No, no one deserves the coin, but you are expected to do something with it. Life is a gift. You share that gift.
Bill and Zo – I’m fairly sure I’m not speaking for just myself when I say that we support what you guys do because we see the two of you, along with Scott and Steve, as mentors in some capacity. Thank you for who you are and for all your hard work.
Amen. I wholeheartedly agree. Accept the accolades from the life you led to get here.
The cancel culture would want to tear you down for your mistakes along the way but the mistakes are what strengths you to do what is making you great now. Keep pressing on because we all need to hear what you are talking about.
Zo talks about his music in this video and he also talks about how it is really satisfying to know, not that he’s making money doing what he loves, but that people are willing to give him money to keep doing what he’s doing because THEY enjoy it so much.
Yet, it makes me think about so many young people like Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison and Hendrix and Elvis and Curt Kobain and Jerry Cantrell and eventually Layne Staley, among countless others who got rich and famous doing what they loved, yet were so tortured by life that they had to escape it and ultimately found the permanent escape.
