Creative Integrity

Last night I went out a saw a bunch of people I grew up with. The main reason for me being out was that childhood friends of mine were performing music. Pete Nobile, Greg Phillips and Ricky Muscat were jamming and it was a confirmation of the integrity of being creative. These are people who have been playing music of over 3 decades now. I've always gravitated to musicians, artists and actors. The ones who took it seriously all these years are still doing it today. We will always do it because it's as essential to us. Last night only confirms what I've always known to be essential. The mantra is, "Always be creative."
