It has been just over a month since I sold off the majority of my musical equipment. Two amplifiers, three guitars, and a bass. I am less bothered by it that I thought I would be. So, I guess that means the things were not what is important. This is highlighted further by the fact that I did not use them as I should. It was about “the hunt” it was about acquiring cool stuff. This is bad.

Looking more forward to taking pictures of the gear and posting them on message boards than to practicing. That’s bad. Looking at the same Facebook Marketplace ads for guitars, amps, and basses over and over again. But not using what I already have. That’s bad.

None of this is to say that we cannot have things, it is when the things become the thing, and that is where I am continually off track. That is where I keep putting everything ahead of Jesus Christ.
