Children have a way of showing you if and where you have trouble being able to love.
My own child has loosened me up pretty good so far; whether I’ve liked it at the time or not:)
What a gift; what an inspiration!
Lucky are we for children and all they embody..
I began playing music way back in first grade because I thought it would be fun; I’m happy to say it didn’t let me down.
Music is lot’s of things to me, but it’s also still fun:) It just feels good to do!
Lucky me am I to be able to do something fun with my life. It’s certainly very hard work at times, but I plan on always keeping it enjoyable too.
Maybe I’m still just a kid in first grade who doesn’t know he’s supposed to grow up yet? Hope so..
I’m always trying to make whatever new piano music I write better than whatever I’ve done in the past. I suppose that’s just the way I’m wired..
On that note: I’ve been cleaning up some more karma again; in this case with my ex. (You know; karma usually is the junk we haul around regarding other folks in our lives that don’t meet our expectations etc.)
I think it’s definitely a good thing to heal things over with those in my life that I have issues with whenever possible. That way I can flow better and have less everyday tension that I carry around, whether I know it’s there or not!
Makes for better music writing also. A certain amount of tension is good for keeping a song interesting, but too much makes the music draining to listen to..
So onwards and upwards I keep wanting to move regarding everything holding me down that may be unnecessary..so far so good:)
Music is something that can really “get” to you in both a good, or bad way; it’s kind of the one man’s food, another man’s poison thing:)
It actually is a lot like food: what tastes delicious and sits well with one person could also make another repulsed and nauseous! However the great thing is there are certainly plenty of flavors etc. to choose from:)
I suppose because music really does have the power to influence our vibrations; almost immediately changing our vibe or our disposition, it really can affect our mood and usually quite easily have it’s way with us.
Certain music uplifts, inspires, energizes, or relaxes me; while other music seems like a form of torture; pushing me to feel everything from uncomfortable, edgy, or mildly irritated to angry and overly aggressive!
Bottom line is that music can be a very powerful force, is a very subjective experience for each person, and is very important to most all of us it seems..
