sounds like you've gotten some extra causes for feeling upset, amongst a year where we're all struggling to one degree or another.

I'm glad you're doing things that still keep you body, and mind more balanced.
You sound like an empathetic person. You derserve more moments of joy & beauty. Keep listening to your beautiful music. Let the good that is there, and elsewhere lift your spirits a bit. Let some others carry the worries for a bit and rest. Everyone has the right to lay their worries down for at least a while. May ✨✨ light✨✨surround you.
