Music is as old as human beings. Everything moves and everything moves to a rhythm. And everything that moves to a rhythm creates sound. At this moment, the same thing is happening everywhere in the world. Our ancestors noticed the same thing when they tried to escape from the cold into caves: things moved and made noise. The first human beings may have been frightened by this at first but tha fear was soon replaced by a sense of awe: they understood that this was the way in which some Superior being was communicating with them. In the hope of reciprocating that communication, they started imitating the sounds and movements around them and thus dance and music were born.
And those ancestors, who travelled from cave to cave couldn't carry many things but modern archaeology shows that, as well as the little they might have with them in the way of food, there was always a musical instrument in their baggage, usually a drum. Music isn't just something that comforts us, it goes beyond that, it's an ideology.
And i've learned some things today what I've already known.
-All that it takes for the world to remain in harmony is for each being to follow the laws of nature.
-The romanticism of youth demands that we always take very radical stances.
-Faith is not desire. Faith is Will. Desires are things that need to be satisfied, whereas Will is a force. Will changes the space around us. But for that, you also need Desire.
