I’ve been loving these tour dumps, because I feel like a lot of people can relate to you. Most people do listen to respond rather than listening to actually listen. I honestly didn’t learn about active listening ,and how to do it until it came up in one of my communications classes in college. It shook me because it made me realize I’ve only ever listened to respond up until that point. I feel like most people don’t even know what active listening is just like I didn’t. With that being said, I think going back to school can be a really great thing. I think when we stop learning, we get sad. I think humans are meant to learn and keep learning throughout life. It gives us a sense of purpose and makes us overall better people in society. You don’t need school to learn new things, but if you’ve been considering it then you should. Lastly I just want to say is that you’re doing your best. You’re putting on great shows, all while dealing with your own demons. All anyone can ask is for you to try your best, and that looks different everyday. You are seen, you are heard, and you are appreciated. Sending lots of love and happiness your way <3
i can totally relate about having a thought that needs to get out but you cant say it. instead of writing it though, i draw or paint in a notebook with watercolor pages. i use a lot of reds, blacks, greys, browns, purples. i hope that if someone were to ever randomly look in my notebook, they'd be able to tell exactly how i am feeling. i don't know if that's possible because when i showed my art to someone, there was just shock and concern. i don't want my vent art to be taken as a call for help. i want it to be considered and appreciated and maybe someone could relate to it.
but that is neither here nor there. i'm glad journaling is helpful to you, like painting is to me
Bro, this world is so fucked everyone is stuck in their phones. Finding purpose is so difficult sometimes and it feels like ya just going thru the motions. I imagine tour is hard, give yourself time to decompress, get a lil treat here and there. I really hope you get the rest and time to decompress soon bb, all the love and good vibes for you right now <3

I think you should go back to school. The way you write really shows how intelligent you are. Do it!
