parallels

today was another normal day, keyword is was. around 9 maybe earlier i found myself typing away with stacey, now, history for those who dont know, havent seen her in about 5 months and really dont wanna see her. the reason im writing about her is because she made a claim towards the end of the typing ball. her claim was that she could make me think. she was right. i was thinking the entire time about my drumming, and the  parallels drumming/music has with women or relationships.for example, women take time, just like developing technique. the only way to keep the relationship strong is to challenge it, same applies to drums. i believe the biggest parallel is communication. you can slave away practicing for hours in a room to the point of smelling like cheese, but if you dont venture outside of practice you will never be able to communicate with other musicians thus making you/me a better drummer.in a relationship if you dont communicate share your frustrations or good news with others you will be in a false sense of relationship bliss. the parallels are endless.
which leads me to my final point/rant
love and music are time proven,never ending,unforgiving, and brutally honest.never get in the way of either.
