A truth plainly ignored by many, is that life is about perspectives, the belief that your observation of an event is clearer and more succinct than that of someone else’s, that your version of love is somehow greater and more resounding than that of your neighbours, your friends, even that in which the object of your affections can muster.

Of all you have seen within your life time, how much of them do you truly remember, is everything that you think you witnessed, every eye-capturing moment, something you observed, or is it the product of the emotions of what you felt running through your veins at the time; not everything you perceive to be real is true, not all the ins you have placed in a map and the images of them in your mind’s eye are everything they could have possibly been.

They tell you that it will all work out in the end, that the girl will get what she aspires to, that the boy will find a way to bring about change, that corrupt Governments will fall and that the people of the world will reject certain alleged realisms and bring forth a welcome peace, or at the very least learn to live with each other.

There is a time for restraint and there is a time for the abandonment of self-discipline, the removal of the chains and shackles of biting your tongue, a time to make peace and the hour in which to send your thoughts willingly into battle, the guns firing upon your command; holding back the weary calm is a persistent drain on the soul, occasionally you have to let go, and by doing so in return you have to be sure that your defences are ready, that you can Brace For Impact.

The first lesson you should learn at school is not that you have to understand Chemistry, you should only need to know that you feel it, the interaction and the harmony available between the elements, that in science the first law of thermodynamics is arguably the most poignant when it comes to human relationships, that the energy of the Universe is constant; Chemistry 101 is the place where attraction is upbeat, passionate and altogether carrying a groove which holds temptation in its hands.

The consensus of inspiration always seems to be loudly asserted that the Muse requires the far-flung adventure or in-depth travelling life in which to gain inspiration to write, and whilst meeting new people, seeing impressive innovative in action and appreciating it with all your senses firing, occasionally all you need is to be able to look outside your own front door, to be able to witness the world turning from the comfort of a front-row seat beside your window; we can all find the Muse without going too far, we can all be part of a story going on down our street.

No person is truly an island, perhaps not even a peninsula, cut partially adrift but somehow staring out to the far horizon as if with noble intentions, only a tenuous link keeping it from becoming a solitary mass and suffering from its own identity and practises. We like to think of ourselves as unified, a combined thought acting in many ways together, and when the fight is against us, we somehow pull together, weathering the storm as one.

There are models of music release which were once seen as innovative but have now become the role model in which everybody employs, such is the shrinking dominance of once proud record labels that the participation of the fan has become even more demanding, crucial to a band’s or artist’s success. It is a relationship in which the fan has a say, perhaps not on style or delivery, but in the process, sponsoring in effect the realm of fortune it costs these days in which to produce a record, a piece of art.

It seems we have become fixated with destroying the past, that the new challenges of the 21st Century are not about progression, preservation of the moments in which can bring joy, which can carry meaning, but instead warrant in the eyes of those with an alternative agenda, the possibility of starting again with an image in keeping with their own judgment, even to the point of desecration, name-calling, accusations and deceit.

No matter how far we go in life, there is always that thought at the back of the mind that makes you tremble with delight and concern in equal measure, that notion, the inkling that someone is Calling Me Home, that something is imploring you to walk back into the lives of those you may have left behind.
It is a feeling that sweeps over you like an artist’s brush delicately placed upon a canvas, each particle of paint patiently making contact with reality, creating a picture in which the only reasonable thing to do, the only proper response is to succumb to the will of fate and once again shake hands with the past.
