What do you feel?

A friend who caught a bit of the audio bug from me asked me what I felt when I listened to music. I was taken back by the question because I didn’t know. I told him that I was relaxed when I listened to music. I didn’t think that was a good answer but I couldn’t think of any other. After a few days I came to the conclusion that I what I often feel is a sense of gratitude when I listened to music. I feel gratitude to be hearing the performance so well. It is if I was rich and had the best musicians in the past and present to perform at my pleasure.

What do you feel?

At other times it is likewearing a body cast of mustard plaster.. With tons of red ants crawling around inside of it

What kind of music are you listening to? Have you shared this response with your therapist?

Foster_9, unfortunately it's necessary to go through that period of critical listening. I went through it for years. Not until I got tube pre and amp did it fall into place. I know we like a lot of the same music and that's why I mentioned this.

There are many paths to Nirvana, and I'm sure you will choose the best one.

Enjoy the music.

Nietzsche was a schizophrenic. Our minds are boring compared to his.

Everyone is a philosopher, and everyone has a philosophy. They may not know it, or be able to put it into words; but everyone has a philosophy. That was a bit of "Orphesian Philosophy"

I make CD's with titles like "Ann, or Gloria, or Cynthia". They are who I think about when I hear "our music". I feel all the colors of the rainbow.
