"When I Paint My Masterpiece"

"Oh, the hours I’ve spent inside the Coliseum
Dodging lions and wastin’ time
Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly stand to see ’em
Yes, it sure has been a long, hard climb
Train wheels runnin’ through the back of my memory
When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese
Someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody
When I paint my masterpiece"~Bob Dylan/Copyright © 1971 by Big Sky Music; renewed 1999 by Big Sky Music


I fight depression just like anyone else. I think to myself, is this it? Is this is good as it gets? Will I ever paint (with my music) another masterpiece? Lately the motivation to just get up in the morning and get to work has not been so easy. I have to remind myself that it's just a season. Part of it is physical and part mental.
Then out of the blue I hear something that inspires me and I'm back in the game. I pray a lot more these days and I know He hears me. My dreams are far from being over...Thanks for listening~Richard
