Just my thoughts #0766

Sometimes one event causes another. In such cases, the first event is often the result of a previous event that led to it. For example, if you roll a die and get a 3, that result already includes the number 3 on the die. If that’s the case, then we should consider that the number of ‘beings born’ in this world is very small compared to ‘things that never came into existence.’ ‘Coincidence’ is thinking that something can happen randomly, and ‘intention’ is excluding the birth of other things to make it happen. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Rest refers to the state of accepting a ‘ meaningless stimulus ,’ rather than being an absence of any stimulus. There is no genuinely meaningless thing in this world; paradoxically, meaninglessness is meaningful because it ‘has no meaning.’ Excessive information and stimulation can destroy creativity . We intentionally need to be in a state of accepting meaningless stimuli in our daily lives. Whether it’s listening to music, enjoying the sounds of nature , or observing ordinary visual scenes that don’t matter, anything is acceptable. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Music is the flow of time. It is an art that divides a predetermined time and promises when to pronounce it. Musicians who break time promises are not entitled to music. It is an act of desecrating the sublime art of music. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

There were three things that only kings could do—and they did them. Firstly, kings made the law. Secondly, kings were responsible for measuring and displaying time by seasonal divisions. The third is to determine the music scale. These three things have one thing in common: they set standards. The legislation is the foundation for order and dispute resolution in human society. Time measurements and indications are the standard for measuring the length of life in nature. The king sets the standard for music. Why? Music is a comprehensive collection of art, mathematics, and physics. Music is, in fact, a political act. It's incredibly complex. I find music the most challenging of all. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

As a classical composer, Beethoven was the first to assign the work number 'Op.' to his works. Music scholars numbered the works of other famous classical composers after they had passed away. Beethoven believed that his work would be passed on to future generations, and he made it his responsibility to do so. Therefore, uncharacterized works were not given an 'Op.', leaving him with fewer works than other composers. This attitude influenced other composers and made them responsible for their creations. Since then, of course, the number of works by composers has decreased. The responsibility of one person can affect a generation and beyond. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
