Tune Runes
One of my regrets is that I never had a musical education. I tried the guitar, but my so-called father did everything he could to discourage me. Without lessons and support of some kind, the guitar went nowhere. My school had no music programs. The most music we got was singing their hymns at their church.
My wife had a lot of music. She was a music major and has an extensive knowledge. Her background was very different from mine. Her family encouraged her interest and supported it.
I feel that I missed a lot by not having musical education.
I like listening to music, but I do not fully understand it. What I do understand is that music is like painting and dancing and the Runes. The musicians Runes are the notes and chords. The painter’s Runes are his colors and blends. The dancer’s Runes are his steps and movements. The chef’s Runes are his textures and flavors and spices. In fact, you can find that each Rune resonates best with certain sounds, colors, shapes, movements, tastes, smells, and textures. The Runes are less of a mystery when viewed this way.
What are your Runes?
