And then, with earth, wind and people all singing along, will we be at peace? Is this what we long for all along? To sing together? To complement the rest of creation? In this, do we become bigger people?
Our songs won't be the same. But together, we can collaborate, each add our flavor, and make a bigger and more expansive song. This does not take away from your individual notes, the unique and individual song that is yours and yours alone to sing. It is both/and, not either/or. I want to learn from your song. Teach me. How has your unique pains and struggle influenced the notes you play? What has helped you on your journey to craft your song? Who were your teachers? The louder and clearer you play your song, the more I learn. Yet the soft parts, even the silence between melodies, teach me about you.
Separate. Yet together. Yet representing one. Let us become what we we already are. Let us become what we truly are.
