This morning, when I viewed my numbers, I was delighted to find some 900 had read my blogs on Music . Technically, they were NOT blogs at all, but transcriptions of quotes I thought relevant to my 'case' for Music Appreciation . I KNOW there is dispute among Muslims, whether or not listening to Music is permissible or if is is "Haram", Arabic for ---> Forbidden [one of the Five Rulings], and many of the Countries that 'read' me have a large Muslim population, so THAT would definitely contribute to low numbers . I suspect that 'Modern Times' have relaxed staunch Muslim Insistence that Music is NOT one of Allah's Fav's, but I am inclined to (b)elieve that Muslims do, indeed, 'Appreciate' Song , or at least TOLERATE it, since Music in all its Forms and Manifestations has Residence among the World's Every-Day Citizenry, and as such, CANNOT be truly Avoided .
Some folks aren't 'into' Music, sad but True . Does that disqualify them from entry into Planetarianism* ? Most assuredly Not . For MOST of Some-of-us, Music is "pleasing to the ear" and affords a 'comfort', where comfort is a Feeling of Connection, first with Time and Place, [Location] of Reality, and then with the general Human Condition that considers Loneliness a viable form of Suffering---Most folks do not want to be alone-- they NEED background Music because they Fear Silence, where Silence AMPLIFIES Alone-ness* .
