Notable Effort

I enjoyed reading Dostoyevsky's Notes from the Underground. I found myself sympathizing with the narrator's alienation from society. He talks about the average worker's fear to oppose their unjust exploitation and how some of them pass it off to themselves as 'good sense'. In my family my decision to work on my music and writing was not supported for most of my life - though it seems to be supported for the moment. There was no need to ask my relatives about my talent because they did not believe in my talent. They thought I should get a real job and be like them. They thought so for twenty years, all the way to when I wrote that batch of songs in 2007. So if I never needed to ask my relatives about my talent, why did a major network need to ask them? Maybe it's because the people on the network all have real jobs and they don't know what it's like to have condescending relatives telling them to quit their music for twenty years. It's a labour of love to create music, but it is still labour. My latest song took me twelve hours to compose and record. It is listed by Garageband as My Song 187.
