22 04 2020 There's a type of bittersweet evolution coming from this global crisis, a heightened voice in my head that is no longer softened or muffled by everyday distractions or conventions. Uncovered, re invented and nurtured to the point of no return, the voice says — let go of your insecurities. You don't need them, they hold you down. Feed your desires, tear your fears apart and leave them for dead. Take the leap, embrace the risk, soak up emotion, bathe in discomfort and bask in the warmth of new opportunities. Expand your perspective, crave satisfaction, express who you are, allow yourself to give into uncontrollable temptations. The world will carry you if you let it touch your soul, it will fuel your passion and feed your energy. Listen to your body, leave your mark and trust your heart. Practise relentless avidity, feel intensely, open heartedly, willingly and be unapologetic. Find yourself, grab it, and be that.

The music is loud in my ears, sheltering me from the un peaceful nature of the world that closely surrounds me. I am alone in a room full of distant minds as the words that echo in my head are individual, untraceable and undiscovered by anyone around me. I am me, I am unique, and so are you. Alone, but not lonely. Accompanied by the sound of whatever you decide. Music is a small, beautiful miracle. It is emerged within you, a part of you, words but no pages, sound with real meaning, people with real things to say. There is no small talk here, cut to the real stuff, it makes you feel alive as it beats with the momentum of your heart. A reflection of the deepest parts of you, an invisible force field, your very own room, a sanctuary of serenity, the music in my ears.
