Gone . . .

https://evolutionnews.org/2015/10/assisted_suicid/

Can too much be said of the deep satisfaction
of making a song out of nothing?
Some don't understand such ethereal concepts
Or even acknowledge this one thing.

Expressing oneself through music, to me
Is a personal, joyous obsession.
I'm simply compelled and how long will I do it?
'Til I'm gone, if that's really your question.

Time . . .

A much-considered topic
Of both philosophy and rhyme
Affecting all; exceptions none
Is the provocative concept of time

No one escapes its extensive reach
Though some, that they have, make the claim
But that is not of my current concern
At piano,  considering a song once again

Can't . . .

. . . explain . . .

. . . or understand the motivation
That I possess
To create something
From nothing
Or at least from very little
Of a musical nature

It's a concept that I can't explain;
a mystery that I cannot solve


Insoluble

Labels . . .

(from  Hitch 22; A Memoir by Christopher Hitchens [quoting Conor Cruise O'Brien])
". . . "Are you a socialist?" asked the African Leader. I said yes. He looked me in the eye. "People have been telling me," he said lightly, "that you are a liberal. . . "  the statement in its context invited a denial.  I said nothing.  And yet, as I drove home from my interview with the leader, I had to realize that a liberal, incurably, was what I was. Whatever I might argue. I was more profoundly attached to liberal concepts of freedom - freedom of speech and of the press, academic freedom, independent judgement and independent judges - than I was to the idea of a disciplined party mobilizing all the forces of society for the creation of a social order guaranteeing more real freedom for all instead of just for a few. The revolutionary idea struck me as more immediately relevant for most of humanity than were the liberal concepts. But it was the liberal concepts and their long-term importance - though not the name of liberal - that held my allegiance. . . "

Relativity . . .

(from:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_relativity)
Concepts introduced by the theories of relativity include:

    Measurements of various quantities are relative to the velocities of observers. In particular, space contracts and time dilates.
    Spacetime: space and time should be considered together and in relation to each other.
    The speed of light is nonetheless invariant, the same for all observers.


MY theory of relativity, or maybe only my simple manner of summing up the same thing, is that time is perceived to be long or short relative to the age of the person perceiving said time period.  When you're very young, even the shortest time period seems to be very long.  Like when you're waiting for the arrival of Christmas gifts or when the age difference between you and that cute seventh-grade girl is so great it seems to be insurmountable. Whereas now, its difficult to believe you're really that close to retirement.
