All these Great Answers for all these Great Questions
I remember when I was young being on road trips. You'd look out the 
window and see a distance light across the horizon with a yearning in
 my gut to know just what it is. Today I think that feeling still lurks 
in many ways and shapes the creative process. Much has changed since our
 youth and like a tree we have our scars weathered and worn. Thinking 
about the ones we've lost a long the way and how our hearts carve 
themselves into new shapes. Worked over by what we've gone through yet 
we learn and become wise. The child like innocence is something that 
diminishes but only if we allow it. I am not a very religious person but
 I believe that music and art have saved my soul. I still get that 
feeling of joy when that beautiful moment happens when you stumble upon 
that idea. Seeing it as a real living breathing form on canvas or disc 
and being able to see, hear and feel the growth. This journey is not 
anywhere near an end it really begins again each day and I am humbled by
 the enormity of it. What would I be if the path had gone another way? I
 fear that answer and search not for the weight of knowing. As I edge up
 the ladder to being 40 years old, I see things with such clarity and 
calm. The simple beauty in a moment has lent it's importance. 
When I started this blog I didn't intend it to have so much personal 
reflection but in a way I am glad it does. Be well and remember that 
life is short so do all you can with the this time. Take the pieces and 
build them skywards.
