"....bump....thump...click... "aah thats about perfect" " said my good friend while we set up the microphone to record another instant classic, we always had a way of giggling just before unleashing a dose of pure passion in form of song.
Now, there are probably those who are ROFLing right now (ahem, inside joke...excuse the pun, pmsl) and others beginning to question whether its worth their time to read on, well, I hope you do.
"Thats About Perfect", considering the context for a moment, we were recording a song with some of the worst conditions imaginable for a recording studio, it was four flat walls and a wood floor.
With that information alone, those in the know can deduce the conditions are rubbish enough to not even need further insight, for example, equipment, but its irrelevant, the room reflects every sound wave, its sonic insanity, and not even decent equipment can save it. Far, very far from perfect!
But still, he was right!
The essence of Perfect, it has a tint to it, its in the elements that make up the cosmos, its the sparkle that leaps out like my pet dog upon a return from a few days break in Malaga.
Perfect, its the simple and pure, the silent knowing, the respect for all that is, it needn't be uttered.
Ceasar from the film Gladiator said these words,
"There once was a dream called Rome, you could only whisper it, anything more, and it would be gone"
The big reminder I always get from a perfect moment is that grand old "tear of gratitude", its the end of denial at that point, because the thing a perfect moment must bring together for one to perceive it as such, is a thing called balance.
That thing called balance, saying it slow reveals its ancient and deep roots "BA ... LANCE"
The word in Latin for Balance is pondera
Just knowing it, it expands the awareness, it allows for investigation, it pulls at further understanding.
If you feel it,
I encourage you,
Dear reader,
To take it wherever it goes.

I See You
