being a songwriter has made me open my eyes alot more to the world around me to look at things with more perspective.
being a musician in a band has made me learn that it's not all about me, and that I have to work with other people to have a meaningful experience.
being in a band in the public eye, i've learnt (or am learning, rather) to think before I act be careful about what i say or do because our actions have consequences, and affect other people.
being in a moshpit, I've learnt that no matter who you think you are, you can be at the mercy of others.
having organized shows before, I've learnt that everything is easier said than done, things can and will go wrong, and you can never please everybody.
there are alot of life lessons to be learnt in being involved with music.
