    A New Work

    Thank you for listening William O, I'm happy you enjoyed it!
  2. It looks like ARI agrees with me. I read most of the first page, 9 pages is a big commitment. I know, it can be redundant when I don't read.
  3. What would that evidence look like? If a person was violent as a youth and served a sentence for it, but has since then reformed and been released, he is then given another chance to be a law abiding citizen. If this same man was from another country and wanted to enter the USA, he should simply have to be sworn in and held to the laws of the land. It is the only objective way to go about immigration law.
  4. Shouldn't any free man be granted entrance to the USA and simply sworn to be a law abiding citizen? If he/she fails to do so, they will be punished accordingly. I really think it's that simple.
  5. What would you like to discuss? I think we can start with interactions with other people. First of all, I always monitor what I say, that is something I had to learn. I used to think I could say whatever I wanted around people I was close with until I realized I am going to make ppl uncomfortable by going unhinged. Also, being unhinged is simply emoting, and isn't a very intellectual method of communicating. I love people when we are a value to each other. I love my boss because she is directing my proper behavior at work. She most likely appreciates me because I show dedication to doing good work. I believe we should have deep conversations about topics we share values in. This I think will help you with having accurate conversations! Let me know what you think!
  6. I find the very basic act of wanting to see the best in each other, even if we don't always agree on what that is, makes me love my Grandma, Sister, Parents and aunts on my mom's side. We don't agree on much else though. What do you all think of this one value we all have in common being the basis of the relationships?
  7. I'm in as well, what are we reading first?
  8. I'll look into some Hugo, thanks!
  9. I love Rand's non-fiction, but when it comes to fiction, these are my favorite eras. Frankenstein and Alice in Wonderland are two favorites! What do you like?

    My Music

    Your words have inspired me so much today logic, I've been practicing extra hard for my show coming up next month!
  11. And no, it does not have to be rebellion, but, it can be. The point of the post is to understand our motivations.

    My Music

    Thank you for your kind and encouraging words! I am classically trained, that is my level of training. I taught myself how to compose and have come a long way since I first started. I enjoy performing at nursing homes for a minimal fee, and am working on becoming a therapist in Kentucky. Those are my two main passions in life!

    My Music

    Please listen and provide feedback on my music here. I would be very grateful! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyUv3y1LKuZfwbOgBiV30dA/videos Thanks, Nakulan
  14. Have you moved to the area yet? It would be great to meet up!
  15. I'm a bit in the dark on really solid ones, Tim Burton is ok, but I'm looking for something more.
  16. Certainly what you have stated is possible as well. Those were just examples of how it could turn out in a negative way. You just took the examples I posed and put them in a positive light, which are absolutely just as valid. I do believe we agree, then!

    Classical music

    I'm listening to Mahler's Symphony 1.
  18. I postulate that the right values to hold in music is to appreciate what does it for you, which can be anything. To understand your subconscious better, you should evaluate the ideas it stores that are driving your tastes. Example 1: If someone values complexity in music regardless of anything else, are they simply attempting to achieve an irrational value of feeling intelligent?Example 2: If someone values simplicity in music regardless of anything else, are they simply rebelling against those who are trying to look intelligent and achieving the value of feeling superior in their humble nature?Is there Psychologically healthy Art Appreciation? To elaborate, two different ppl can view the same piece, one in a psychologically healthy manner and another in a psychologically unhealthy manner.Also, being honest with yourself in what appeals to you Artistically can uncover great Psychological insights.
