“The source of inspiration can be any of the things:deep emotional experiences - say, romantic love or spiritual contemplation.I think such rare moments come only when you have total concentration. You are consumed in and by the music. I guess you could say that it is akin to contemplation. In order to reach this desirable state of mind you have to rise above the environment you're in at that particular time - a bad piano, glaring stage lights, or the attitude of the audience. Sometimes the inspiration of the other musicians you're playing with helps you reach this stage.” ThinkingMindSometimesMomentsHelpingInspirationSpiritualAttitudeAudienceEnvironmentEmotionalMusicianContemplationConcentrationState Of MindRomantic LoveRise Above Author:Dave Brubeck
“I think a huge part is how we're socialized growing up to see our value and worth as being tied into a relationship and how our culture teaches us a distorted sense of romantic love - can't live without you, can't breathe without you, I'll die without you. As teenage girls we believe that level of emotional intensity and dramatics equates with real love. We're also taught that if we date lots of people, then we're sluts, so at an early age we put all our eggs into one basket, so to speak, and concentrate on "the one".” PeopleThinkingBelieveRealAgeValuesCultureGirlSpeakTeachGrowing UpEmotionalBreatheReal LoveRomantic LoveTeenageTeenage Girl Author:Rachel Lloyd
