The Fourth Vision

There's many ways I look at things in this day. There could be one thing I think about from time to time, and it's not just about a specific person, or thing. Rather, it's something of nature. Though, not necessarily the world.

There is sometimes those days where, at night, I want to take a walk somewhere. Anywhere. I usually walk down the big road, 'Star Dust Speed Way' and I look down upon the city lights in the direction it drags down. I watch how they either flicker or stay in a small ball of light and just think. But, I don't know about what half of the time. One thing I always remember thinking about is: "What is it like down there?"

I can remember when a good friend of mine, who I like to call "Emman", always would play these amazing guitar riffs. It amazed me so much, and I would just sink into the music, and felt the need to just want to hear them over and over again, and even to this day, I look back and say 'I wish we could play that again', but we wouldn't ever remember the chord progressions.

I've had an idea here and there, it may be good, it may be bad, but it didn't seem to matter to me or Emman in a way. Emman would have a fair share of ideas as well. "What if you tried to play this.." And he'd mimic a bass riff on his acoustic guitar (which he still has to this day) and I'd consider it and try it. And I would just like the ideas.

I wish I could do things like that on other things in life, have an idea or something that came out to be good. "Play the fifth fret, then slide to the first and back to seven." Music is the way to the soul, and it's the only thing I tend to live on.

Friends and music tend to go hand at hand, but I don't let the bad things in life get in the way of that. If anything, I look at the things I see from day to day, and compare it to a song that I know from the music I listen to, or even try to imagine it as a song.

If you see something that either moves you or just gets to you, relate it to something you like (ie, me and music). Only then would you understand it fully in your own vision.
