We can but be Young once, and during that time all that we do is either experienced out of inquisitiveness or out of youthful bravado or hidden malevolence, as the insightful writer of human experience, Virginia Woolf, once wrote, “One of the signs of passing youth is the birth of a sense of fellowship with other human beings as we take our place among them.”

A gesture of thanks must always be acknowledged, that even in the sadness of passing, people will always recognise the natural artistic gift to which people bring to the fore with courage, with passion and a huge willingness to sacrifice time in the pursuit of excellence, no matter how it is received at the time, what is immersed in greatness will always find a way to be re-discovered, be reborn into a time when others find the pleasure imagined at the time.

Where Time Suspends, inspiration unlocks and sets free the spirit to explore, to be at peace and rage against interruption and postponement with all its might.
Time though suspends for a reason, the moment where you can hear it withhold its passage between the Tick and Tock is the most precious gift that it can bestow, for whilst inspiration serves a greater purpose, reflection is the place where the Muse looks you in the eye and asks you take part in the dance, serenaded by silence, buoyed by the song of the passionate eternity; for in that moment what is born, what appears fresh to the world is the commitment to push to clock onwards and allow what you have dreamed to be pursued.

Taking Medicine At Midnight can lead to the mind going places it has no right to be, the sense of the equilibrium being askew, the mist descending and creating a thick fog to which anger is subdued, where dreams become stretched, like shapeless marzipan they lose their consistency, and no matter how much you enjoy the sensation, it just feels as though you are out of whack, out of time with yourself and what you desire in a world without medication.
If a tale is told well, it does not matter where it comes from, or what inspired it to be voiced, to be communicated from, whether from the lips of a drunken passer-by who intrigues you with softly spoken ramblings of treasure under the mysteriously drawn X on the side of a cave, or from the melodic tones of a declaration of intent which is passed down from father to son, from mother to daughter, in the hope that one day a wrong will be righted. An investigation will prove the tale to be so much more than just hearsay and rumour, what matters is the presentation, the subtly, the craftsmanship, and how the account and the encounter leaves you afterwards.

We live in a time when the rolling of the boulder up a steep, pointed hill in an exercise of futility of attaining balance, is not just foolhardy, but painful to witness. Like Sisyphus we have become obsessed, cursed with achieving the impossible when the fates are against us, and whilst to endeavour is what makes us human, we sometimes must stop and wonder why the boulder we push is forever gaining speed on the way back down.

Keep The Blues Alive, a mantra for our age in which audiences around the world are demanding that though the times have changed beyond recognition, our aural appreciation of the moment is unblemished, that it is still receptive to the chord and strings which make up passion, the preservation of the music past, and embracing what is to come, but that it must not be allowed to wither away, to become muted, to lose not only its voice, but its grandness, its emotional resonance on all our souls.

You do not have to wear a uniform to salute a Captain, nor should it be one that is given under duress, of the fear of reprisal, but one intended of respect, of that sense of absolute admiration for the position they hold in public, and in private, of the high opinion offered to another human being for the work they have produced and of consistent high quality they persistently endeavour to offer.

There are many ways in which a song can be presented so that the listener feels the depth of emotions that are required to survive, to feel wanted in today’s often cynical world, to thrive despite the background chatter that gets under the skin and leaves a footprint of distrust and ill temper indelibly marked on the skin.
However, it should always be a two-way conversation that can make others of less empathic nature believe that it comes down to stroking and the inflating of the ego but is in fact the act of Grounded individuals marking time in mutual consent and one which can impar wisdom, which can offer a sense of healing, of therapy and recovery.

The first thought might not always be the one that ends up on paper, but it is the one to which you return to for inspiration at a later date, like a kiss from your first date, it is the comparison to which all others are others are sized, judged, considered, and it the act in which you witness the act of the proclamation of Love Me, and how a marriage of ideas can be brought forth and unified from that single initial moment.
