Wise advice there Dan... I guess sometimes things just get "TOO MUCH" (especially for people with a sensitive nature like Williams) to push through the "hard times". But that's why I think Zen is good to know. It teaches you that the hard times are just as much part of the rich tapestry of life as the "GOOD" times and as such, helps keep you "centered" (as the "Zennies" like to term it) if slightly "detached" (as Robert Pirsig noted to me in London during July 2005).

I suppose artistry and madness really do go hand in hand at times, which is both terrifying and exhilarating. Gotta push through it... can't let it take you down..."
