When I saw this man playing on the street so he could make some money, I saw the expression on his face. He was in his own world and not only enjoying his music, but passionate about sharing it with others. I have found music to be a wonderful pain reliever that can stir something in your soul that takes attention away from pain. When I am painting, I’m in an alternate state, totally focused on the subject, rather that on myself or what might be ailing me.
