Music Thoughts

never say that’s just the way the world works

be VERY wary of people who say
“that’s just the way the world works.”

for them, maybe.

they’ve made a decision to perceive and assess things the way they do, good for them.

Doesn’t mean “I” have to agree with them.

never did mean it.

Be Wary

Be wary-
wary of depending on others who’s tastes and opinions are very very different than yours….

that might require context and explanation…

but no, let’s give it a shot on it’s own first.

then again,
perhaps if you are very confident, and not afraid, and secure in yourself, perhaps one need not be wary, but how does one beCOME confident, in such a way? harder to answer.

Self-Love is the way.

being misjudged

on rare occasions I meet someone who assumes that I’m reasonable and not crazy and not extreme and not me and “am normal” and don’t express myself honestly.
sometimes they friend request me.
seeing one of them delete their friend request, after a few weeks of my posts, is amusing.
seeing people not yet realize that I’m not your average easy going type, and then seeing them find out… is just sorta amusing.

a minor thought about the Dorian Mode

wonder what percentage of people who know how to play in what is effectively THE DORIAN MODE (any time you are in minor, but using Major 6ths and still minor 7ths (and major 2nds, etc)
wonder what percentage of such people who know how to PLAY It realize that
THE FOUR CHORDS (the IV chords are MAJOR in it, and this is one of the distinctivenesses (nice word) it has.

and one of the awesomnesses. (nicer word, and apparently not one, also.)
