Like all subjects, music can draw passionate reactions from fans and haters. There is this culture that prevails in the  internet.

Assassinate characters gain points. Before I was fully involved in this venture, I used to frequent a lot of chatrooms and forums. These are spaces dedicated to other forms of music. There are a handful that observe proper behavior. But there are those who would go on their end just to say something bad. Because saying something bad constitutes ‘cool’. That’s it? What about feelings? Would these people say the same thing in real life?

This behavior has become so common that meeting someone so pure and nice  seems phony. I mean it’s almost unbelievable that such  person exists. Yes that distrust is the product of being exposed to poisonous environment. But I can attest there are still people like that-the good and decorous- in real life and cyberspace.

I guess being a fan of Celtic music has taught me not just to look at my personal concerns. Our life can get really loud if we crank up the volume. That’s why people build dramas around themselves. In doing so they think that what they are is the World. But it is not. There are some things and ideas out there worth looking into. Archeology is exciting, and so is learning new languages and designs.  We are not really inexhaustible. One way or another we will extinguish our flames creative as we continue to feed in our soliloquy. Come on Science is exciting too!

What you feel might is important to you. But what would it gain you if you end up hurting another person’s feelings? I read this quote somewhere ( I forgot the author) that words are chunks of wood we use to crucify ourselves.

With that said I think there is no other thing more exciting than doing this : writing for music. And not about me.
