to the young people

"To the young people who love this song/music ,here is a romantic theme and this music was played at a time when you danced holding your partner,You could dance with any girl/woman, but you held your girl closer .She was special .You danced as one and you could feel her mind and body as you held her closely .Today's music is tribal ,There is no romance and the words sound like drunken street talk. It is very hard to explain this to you because you may have little reference to what I am saying.Until you have been glided around a dance floor in the arms of some one you love ,to this and many songs like it, you haven't lived."

That's the flip side of a life lived with gratitude I guess. In that once you begin to notice all the good things and tiny blessings and learn to be thankful for them, you also become acutely aware that none of them will last. It manifests itself as a certain kind of sadness. Why joy is always bittersweet. If you become aware that you are at the pinnacle of an experience, you also become aware that the only way to go from there is down. If every cloud has a silver lining, every blessing leaves you with a little grief. If you live like this for a long time, if you let this truth seep beneath your skin, it'll change the way you live. You tread the earth gentler, speak softer, like you're carrying something fragile inside you, the knowledge that every time you say goodbye to someone it might be forever.

fear of death maybe? not just of yourself, but of all things. teaching us to look for value, to cherish the ephemeral
