i tend to naturally look at tools and other stuff differently than
most people, i think.
in a good way, i'd argue.
to me, everything that exists has infinite benefitial possibilities.
this idea comes from the joyful changing of perspectives.
from thinking up and down and around and in and out of the box.
from the present to the past to the future and back.
...
a screwdriver is also useful as prying lever.
or a hole puncher.
or, in a pinch, a paint-stirring stick.
or a message scraper.
etc. etc. etc.
or a drum stick.
...
life is grand.
for the most part.
or can be, anyway.
it's the people in bad moods that cause most of the avoidable
troubles.
both for themselves and others.
(and their bad moods are not always their faults, by any means).
...
so whenever possible, make music, not noise.
...
or at least be beautifully silent and hear the wind.
(and other possible sounds or voices)
but if your deaf, don't despair.
because like a screwdriver, your ears can hear the music in many
different ways.
