Believe me, after you have reached the age when you can say you have seen it and
done it, differences in people, no matter what they may be, become the 'spice
of life' that keeps your own personal interest elevated to a level that provides
emotional fuel to continue facing and dealing with the people that seem to be
existing in the same time zone as you but in another fantasy zone of social
intercourse and personal existence. They are pretenders while you are the one
that is the purveyor of reality. Don't ask me to explain, I would have to
write the equivalent of a Masters project in Philosophy. I'm sure, after you
think about what I just said, (or was it the Vodka speaking) that you will
understand for I am positive any musician that has attained a skill sufficient
to perform at least half of the musical literature has gained an insight into
the influence of physical and especially, audible, organized sound and the
possible effects it can have the human animal. . Any Philosopher/musicians out
there that would like to discuss the relationships between the art of music and
the physical properties and behavior of all existing matter and may relate to
the well being of the human species? Music Therapists may want to join in.
