Think of being part of a team with a goal.  Plans are made and big steps taken, with all the resources in place, the game begins. 

Only to find your team mate is not helping or doing their part. Everything crumbles into a slowly cascading tragedy.  The fact that you love what you were aiming for confirms what the pain is telling you.

You could have had it all.

Do you dedicate your life to achieving success and fortune or stop and smell the roses?  Are you accumulating money and wealth while losing friends and everything else in the world?  You can be anything if nothing else matters.

What foods would you like to make?

I would like to make foods based on needs of human populations. For example, zoos have special diets for animals in their care. What we need is something like ‘puppy chow’ for humans.

This would be a food to give away to those in need. Something that might be enough to keep hikers, astronauts and the poorest of us all healthy.

I often wonder what society is waiting for.  When will we finally be equal?  When will we finally do something about the environment, education, resources allocation and discrimination?

I can’t keep waiting without saying what needs to be said to everyone. 

You can wait.  You can hope.  You can pray. 

But now is the time to scream out loud.

I have an instrumental piece to share. More of a soundscape than a song. For fun, I also made a short YouTube video to play. Headphones help.

‘No Thing’ by Michael S Kennedy

More coming soon!

I thought I would share this little piece with you. I am just experimenting with new sounds to see what I come up with. There is no real structure or drum tracks to speak of. Just a bunch of cool textures and visions of other worlds. Or, maybe it is this one in the future?

How do you express your gratitude?

Every day!

What are you most worried about for the future?

If there is one.

A response to a bumper sticker that mocks good students I used to see (like – my son can beat up your honor student…)  I thought of each religion pitting their god against the others like high school sports.  Unfortunately, we have faith and god turned Upside Down, but at least my god is better than yours.
