Thanks for your comment here. You might be right, although I'd like to explain my viewpoint. I believe there's a freedom to be found in the positive vibration. I'm not trying to stifle anyone; I'm trying to safeguard everyone. This I believe can be achieved if we each take responsibility for the subtle energies we release through the power of our music.
I agree with you for the most part. Definitely understand the importance of expressing the full spectrum of emotions, and music is about the best way I know to do that. For example, I enjoy singing melancholy songs in minor chords that could be considered sad, and in fact I carry some sadness in my life and music helps me to do the "shadow work" of dealing with the heaviness I feel at times.
Music has the power to heal, and the power to hurt. Some songs promote violence, hate... and they hurt. I feel these types of songs could be a danger to people at this mystical moment in human history. I'm not wanting to judge, though. I'm only wanting to enjoy. So I gently ask that we safeguard participants of the Hive Open Mic with a positive vibration.
Do you feel where I'm coming from, brother? Feel free to continue this conversation. I'm grateful for your perspective.
