The Harmony of Life (music applications for living)

When life situations are unfavorable, and the song is over-played and has become outdated, that is the time to re-harmonize the situation. Re-structure the environment; change the texture and view of that which has become distasteful, unpleasant and overtly unbearable. What I’m saying here, in case your brain happens to function at a low/slow capacity, is that you must regroup and restructure your surroundings; change your associations and habits. Start again.

People relations are like notes of music. They can be in unison, grouped as chords moving in parallel motion, or they can co-exist in contrapuntal movement. When people are working together, as a team, that is a chordal situation; a group effort moving together harmoniously. Contrapuntal motion can be either positive or negative. Both entities can work together as separate entities in a unified effort, or they can oppose each other.

Unison does not necessarily denote unity. Although each entity has aligned itself to act as one, as opposed to contrapuntal action, does not mean that each entity is together. As with octaves, one can be together, but still separate; in unison, but spread out, as with a military operation.
