I would tell my younger self to enjoy every bit of it… to find the meaning between the notes. Marlboro clearly imparts the importance of a musical community searching tirelessly together for meaning and beauty, which is easily applicable to any dimension of life.

But in this dilemma, I see the very opportunity music offers to those who are ready to really connect and find meaning.
