Hey, I hope you're all doing great and you had a wonderful and loving Christmas time. When it's already over, I'd want to tell you something, which I think is quite important. As you've already sussed out I've never been uploading new videos on YouTube too often, but recently it's been even less often than ever. I've been playing the guitar for around 10 years and from time to time I felt like I need a break from playing, but after some time it always ended and I started playing again. Not this time. Some time ago I started to feel a bit under pressure due to my YouTube channel and little live shows - which is weird as I always wanted to be a musician playing live. Also some personal issues, which I've been dealing with for a long time added fuel to the fire and made me feel even more overwhelmed, sick at heart and demotivated as for playing the guitar. For some time I had to force myself to grab a guitar and play a little bit, but after all it still was fun. Now, playing isn't fun at all and I can't enjoy it. It doesn't feel like it's caused by laziness, but something deeper and more serious, which doesn't seem to change, at least not too quickly. Due to all of this, I won't be uploading any new videos too soon, as I don't have a will and strenght to do so. I thought you should know it, as I'm grateful for your support and I think that I should be honest with you and you deserve to know how I feel. I hope my feelings and state of being will change in a while and I'll start uploading new videos again. I hope you'll understand me and respect this situation. Wait for me please. I'll try to come back. All the best, Alex
