It's still falling down...
Thank you for the track All Falls Down. A long time ago, when life was simpler, this was simply a song with a funky beat and great lyrics that had a great vibe to it. Those were my adolescent days with my juvenile problems that felt like true cataclysmic catastrophes. Those would pale in comparison to the things that stress me today. This song speaks volumes about the trials and tribulations one will encounter on the road to glory. I’m sure we all know how the song goes, but take into consideration the separate phases the song goes through in just a matter of minutes. Now I’m writing solely based on my own experiences and interpretations of the song. I’ve second-guessed both of my degrees from the moment I got them because it’s so hard to find passion in a field with little to no grey area. “That major that she majored in don’t make no money.” Story of my life. Because the money to be made entails becoming a person I’m not equipped to be. Selling yourself for a dollar is the theme. I thought I could find security in a field that wouldn’t deviate so far from the rules and that hasn’t been the case. The song itself reminds me that things will continue to go wrong as long as you keep focusing on all the wrongs around you. It takes a strong mind to be able to see the positives around you whenever everything seems darkest. The song will transcend time and generations because the problems depicted in the song have continued to plague our society. Many will criticize a person that decides to overlook their shortcomings for the pursuit of happiness. But those same people will also advise you to do what makes you happy. The contradiction lies in the fact that advice can only seem sound when that person is happy with their situation. The struggles we encounter will always be in abundance. It helps define us because the person that rises from being knocked down is never the same person that went down. You rise a little tougher, a little wiser, a lot more determined.

Evolution
I was barely holding on to the edge of sanity , trying to do everything work and family . I didn’t want to give up anything; I wanted to do it all , but slowly I was losing a battle inside my heart . I finally went to far and began to lose control,when somehow in the darkness I discovered my buried soul.

The Beautiful Art of Gail Collins Pappalardi
Introduction I have always been fascinated by the surreal but beautiful album cover art from the early albums by Mountain, so I have now just decided to dig into it and found a very sparse Wikipedia entry on Gail Collins Pappalardi which you can read here.

The live level of China's banned indie musician Li Zhi?
For this question, now if simply ask Li Zhi's scene is no longer enough. I mean it's not just about Li Zhi. The live level of popular music, both mainstream and non-mainstream, depends on many factors, including singers, bands and styles, performance hardware and software and so on.

How Hidden By Soul (HXS) inspires creatives to elevate beyond artistry
The most powerful connections of our existence are those that change us; that inspire us to be better, work smarter, and live more compassionately. Kinder. Fairer. More open-minded. Those who contribute to the evolution of our artistry or way of being are among the greatest souls we have the opportunity to cross paths with.

"Jane Anger", "The Chinese Lady" and "A Day in Hollywood, A Night in the Ukraine"
For anyone who loves the PBS show" Upstart Crow", "Jane Anger" will delight you as well. This show at The Ohio Theater was written by Talene Monahon (who also played Anne Hathaway) and for the most part is a real good one. The show features four terrific actors and the premise is that a cunning woman, Jane Anger (Amelia Workman) is going to help William Shakespeare (Michael Urie) get over his writer's block; and that a pamphlet titled Jane Anger Her Protection for Woman" the author is title less even till this day. With the help of his not so young assistant who is willing to empty Shakespear's chamber pot because he is career obsessed, (Ryan Spahn), Shakespeare is able to get down to writing his new play, King Lear even though it was written years earlier by Thomas Kyd. What better time to be a cunning woman than during a plague? Jane Anger is a real woman as she tells us; before being a cunning woman she was a whore and before that she was a weaver's assistant. While the X's go on doors, we get the humorous puns about those times and our current time. Monahon brings 1606 into 2022.
