Entertainment. What does it mean to you? Today, I will share music. Not in a song. Not with lyrics. But from a fun perspective of courage and one of motivational thinking perhaps, even suggestions of how to use music as a safe coping skill too.
The hobby of music affects each of us differently and is enacted upon as different in our lives too. The lobby of a song is usually first & foremost created only for profits. That's just the reality gist of it. Mathematical profits of the value of a song or a musical group or performing entertainer clearly define who is at top of their social acceptance game and who is not based upon profits.
Many a hobbyist create their own form of entertainment for profitable gain and returns. As if a number of money will ever be able to truly define what the value of a person is. Shame that it does though when it never should.
The value of a person should begin and end only in each personal individual mirror of one's own reflection. Profits and money may sustain life but by placing your value upon a dollar is not only hurting yourself but this will deprive your life of any chance of living life happy and healthy as well.
Music lyrics and musical compositions have been giving and sharing joys among strangers for years. The community of music is one of the greatest forms of togetherness we have to enjoy beneath that only of comparison in sports entertainment.
In music, we find ourselves and our emotions. We find who we want to be by a dream of a song. We feel the love we lack in life by musical lyrics or the scream of a guitar that holds us hostage into the sound of perfection with only but the strum of a string. We feel the imperfections of life in the burden of those deep songs that allow someone else to pat us on the back to make us feel as if every thing will be OK again. We feel the knocking of death's door on our life through the darkest of songs created - while never taking that step our self to pull a knife across our wrists or to put a gun in our mouth to pull the trigger. Music takes us to the emotional edge of life with whatever we face without taking us over the edge. Music allows to love someone we can never have. Music gives us all that we want without any of it being tangible. Music gives us life and helps us to secure the respect for our own life and the value we place upon our self as well.
My musical library is as long and extensive as it is diverse. I tend to cling to older fast tempo of rock and roll or country songs on my good days for the greatest celebrations I have. I tend to listen to gospel music or the darkest of alternative heavy rock on my worst and bad days.
I have those special songs of shared love that I listen to when I need to feel love again. I have those songs that do put increased estrogen in my blood by their whimsical magic of creating and seeking a perfect love. Perfect love never exists but I don't think it's ever unhealthy to keep dreaming about it or doing an imagination dance with the close to perfection memories I have of perfect love either. Music allows me to dream, fantasize, and be happy and fulfilled. Even if only but for a few minutes getting lost in a song.
Even if it's not real - fantasy and imagination are still the most youthful aspects a person can have in their life.
Bottom line, I know how much music is a daily importance in my life as my personal motivator, encourager, supporter and comforter I have found.
I wish others more of the knack to use creativity by another - even if they are only produced for profits - to absorb into the potential of emotional healing and emotional strength that musical compositions and musical lyrics possess to give us.
Many great artists of our time have left such works of humanity that unfortunately, their lives were so over burdened with caring for others by using their music as their expressions of this love - that they succumbed to self-harming techniques that lead to many accidental overdoses or suicides.
To have that kind of passion for life and compassion for others with gifting of music is unreal and hard to imagine - unless you feel the lyrics literally move the blood in your body to increase your heart rate or to excel your own brain cells to motivation to create positive changes in your life too.
I don't see anyone on this Earth as an expert or superior expertise of one to another. I never have and hope that I will never intentionally belittle my own individuality as this. For being biased about anything without finding out for yourself - not only limits your life but also negatively will end up hurting your life too.
For we are all experts of our own experiences and thus, as potential teachers of positivity waiting to be shared of the resources we have in our intellect, mental, psychological, logic, rational, emotional and humane assets.
If all people felt the value up on their self as the price of a profitable and tangible item - imagine what we all could be & so much more we could all do & contribute to the human race that we actively but separately participate in every day.
For many, community is obtained by what can be bought & purchased to create an assembly for that community. Community is invested in by the mobility we have and the financial spenditures we do.
Kindred spirits of like minded hobbies of entertainment in formal or casual gatherings. Birds of a feather flock together comes to mind actually. But what about individuals who can not assemble to their own community because of mobility or financial deprivations? Then what?
Community is as close to a form of music device that you can crank the volume up on. People may forget us. Our former self of A Person I Use to Know may change profusely limiting what we can or can not do. But music never forgets us - so we should never forget music as a daily asset of hobby or even constructive use in our life either.
Ask any individual why they like or love music. Their defining will be as diverse and unique as they are. But ask a person to tell you the positives or negatives that music has been in their life and most will not be able to answer. Why is this?
For music is viewed as entertainment primarily first. But never viewed as a hobby of emotional well-being or daily balance.
Music has always been a hobby of mine. Learning about it. Exploring it now. Growing it for my own emotional understanding and self-appreciation of the puzzles behind the music.
It's like I am kid in a playground again and trying to climb those super tall monkey bar that the adults warn you to stay away for fear you'll get hurt.
But being head strong and driven for one's own fulfillment keeps leading a person to climbing even when scared of falling off those heights - it does nothing to hinder or slow the person from climbing to reach that top. Just because some one else tells you that you can not do something - does not make it true - unless you believe this truth in yourself.
Human beings are as computers. Our brains are a very detailed yet confusing organ that accepts new programming all day long - as long as we are not fearful to keep inputting information into it & trying our best to understand the miracle of our own genetic being. No one else can do this for us. Only each of us individually can.
I don't know about you but the lobby behind any hobby for me becomes uniquely defined by me on what it is or what something isn't of importance to me.
Many go through life and like or dislike things especially entertainment or hobbies because someone else told them that they were good at something or that they could market to sale something or to reject it because they are not good at it.
I am more of a liberal for free expression than profitable conformity. I always have been.
For me, it's sharing the talents, gifts, hobbies or assets that makes our individual life have value and giving that value to some one else who doesn't believe in their self or has no one to believe in them - that makes my missions possible and continously plentiful. I think of those that have had that grey area of life where right is wrong & wrong is right vibes too it.
I think of those, like me, that have had more negative feedback than positive support of understanding. It is for those under dogs as me that I continue to share. Even if I write all day long to a blank audience - it's OK for me. For I know that by sharing one mustard seed - as I come to call it - that one day; a person will come along to read it & that my words of sharing will help their life out when they need some one the most in that exact moment.
The Internet offers many active as well stationary websites. Everything you can imagine is now on the Internet. For what websites are popular today will tomorrow's accomplished historical documentations of progress tomorrow.
Some win. Some lose. But if you do something to help yourself and to make yourself feel good - your value has already become gained and that is something that no one can give you or take away from you but yourself.
So celebrate and define life as you will by making sure to retain a little of that courage and motivation and happiness for yourself tpp. The only truth to believe in life is what your heart tells you and your brain actively enables you do too. Everything else is merely a lesson for the making and taking and sharing of.
