You’re playing a song, and your bass drum pedal breaks. The remainder of the song suffers as you try to muddle through without your most important drum.
But it’s just a song. Hopefully you can fix it. But you do what you can and move on.
Life can change in an instant. When the unexpected strikes, priorities are altered.
Maybe your calamity is bigger than a ruined song. But the principle is the same. You do what you can, and move on.
And be thankful for the drums that still work.
