Stop being so offended by other people's success. Your path is waiting for you to embrace it. That's where your riches are. ❤️

[John Mayer @JohnMayer]

I don't usually celebrate album anniversaries. I have a hard time perceiving the past. I like now, and what's to come. But this album, that turns 20 today, changed my life. I'd had success already, but everything clicked into place on this album. I met some of the greatest musicians and engineers in the world and learned so much about making records from them. When I think back on what made the album so special, some thoughts come to mind, and they're worth my remembering: Life came into the room. I rode bikes on the beach. I was goofy - most of the images from these years are of me doing something wacky. The record took time. Months of writing, giving up on lots of songs, writing new ones, moving studios, taking breaks. As I get older l tend to expect results faster. I get frustrated a little easier. But it's always been the same; you work weeks and months on songs. Some don't make it, but it's never a waste of time. You live more life, you write more songs, and the process starts again. You cherish the tight little list of tunes that matter. When just one joins the ranks, it's a blessing. Joy wins out over discouragement. You have fun with your friends, who are all on the journey of exploring the unknown with you. Great albums are built in layers. You have to become different versions of yourself to create a lasting body of work. Nobody cares how long it takes if the music is meaningful. If you want to make something truly special, you have to bring talented people in the room to contribute. Steve and Pino. Chad Franscoviak and Joe Furla engineering along with Don Smith and Dave O'Brien. Martin Pradler editing vocals. René Martinez handing me the guitar. Ricky Peterson on keys, @jamesbvalentine played some guitar on Stop This Train. Larry Goldings played B3 and @aliciakeys sang backgrounds on Gravity. Roy Hargrove played trumpet.
Charlie Hunter played on In Repair. @BenHarper played slide guitar on Belief. Willie Weeks played bass with Pino on I Don't Trust Myself With Loving You. The right music with the right people at the right time in my life. That's all you can ever hope for. And thank YOU, dear reader, for giving life to these songs. Onward...

There isn’t a single woman in SA that is not vigilant. Not one. We live in constant fear, everyday. We have anxiety because of it.

Somewhere in your 20s or 30s you’ll get the opportunity to rebuild your life after a negative loop. It's very important that you see that journey through.

One thing I love about traveling is how it breaks the illusion that your current life is the only life you could live

The best advice I heard from a stranger was this: give luck more opportunities to bump into you. Leave the house, take a different road, travel, say yes to new experiences. The more you do, the more life surprises you in the best ways.

I think one of the most heartfelt experiences in life is discovering that someone genuinely enjoys your presence. Not what you provide, Not your accomplishments. Just you, your thoughts, your energy, your existence.
