Music is the expression of ideas and emotions using rhythm, melody, harmony, tones and the use of sounds. It is produced by either instruments or living creatures.

It is a form of communication especially useful when a person is lonely or calls for help. Music in different tempos and rhythms are only understood by people within the music industry for their secret communication channel.

It expresses not only the feelings and emotions of either an individual or a group of people, it also brings across the ideas which have fused together with music to another person who understood the language.

While portable music devices and music are downloaded every second and shared over the internet, did anybody question if they themselves the listeners or audience is just listening to music for the seek of keeping up with the trend or is it what they really like?

Looking back, from the age of just radio, to walkman, disc-man, FM receivers, MP3, iPod, mobile phones with storage capabilities for music to palm tops MP4s and subsequently 3G phones which replaced all of the previous products in the market, music has come a long way and transformed in the mediums of how it is being played.

Business evolved, money and profits are made in the process, business owners and clients get rich and poor in the process respectively as both sides are happy with the end results it produces.

Music was once what we listen for relaxation, but as I look around the people in public transport, people are more and more reliant on music as a getaway channel to de-stress. So much so that they are always dependable music, listening if not blasting music into their ears, some which can even, be heard at the end of a single MRT cabin on the other side.

It is a luxury, for relaxation, but over dependence on music will become addictive and trick audience to believe that they themselves are in a tricked believe world of their own. Music accordingly to their own preference, is a reflection of the freedom, and boundaries which each individual seek.

Night clubs, pubs are just a temporary getaway place to relax, but with the portability of audio devices, people over relax themselves to the extent they no longer think correctly, and is showing signs of health complications such as mild deafness, grumpy emotions, inability to control their anger, reluctance to speak and communicate except to smooth themselves in the retreat of blasting music to their ears, jamming up the mind, making themselves in a condition less desirable.

Night clubs is a great place to relax, as it is a once a week, a month kind of places for people to distress, but with the increase stress at work, and at home, patrons are visiting such night spots frequently.

Is it a testimonial of false deception, temporary de-stress and put yourself into danger with intoxication of drinks, drugs and sex; one-night-stands, flings or just for sweet revenge to get back at your partner who is a playboy?

Whatever music you’re listening to right now, ask yourself if it is doing you good or putting you within an arms length from danger itself?

Is music helping you get rich or poor? Why not consider profiting from music instead of listening to music meant for the masses?

The secrets to get rich is to know what you want and need, and not to follow other people’s direction and help business owners fulfill their needs and desire for profit at the expense of your putting yourself in danger at arms length.

Music is be meant to be enjoyed and appreciated but not as a hideout or temporary getaway.

It should not be used as a mean of escaping from reality by blasting music to our ears to trick ourselves that we are happy as long as there is music. It is deceiving and will only do more harm than good.

It is not to be used as a escape from problems, instead, it should be used to help us face the reality as the phrase said: “Be prepared to face the music”.

Line is an indication of demarcation, boundary, limit; often said to the fine line between right and wrong. In business and in law under the justification system, a clear line is drawn and spelled out clearly between the legal and illegal business or law practice.

Smarter individuals and businesses will than engage professional help such as lawyers and accountants to get into the hidden line of spectrum, the grey boundary which is similar to science, the colour spectrum of light and how it compromise of many various different light rays.

It is clear that in business and under law, it is easily to spell out what is right and wrong thanks to the terms and conditions with agreements to follow whatever considerations that has being discussed and agreed before any contract has being signed. But it is not always the same as for relationships especially when it comes to emotional relationships which has no right or wrong, neither is there any laws in any country to date that governs this emotional relationship in particular.

What every country can only do is to spell out laws which concerns business, money when relationships failed over partnership or when things get messy and out of hand.

Ladies often said men are playboys, which I as a guy can only agree but only partially agreement. But with time and exposure to books, television shows, and the ability to understand and comprehend in depth conflicts of relationships and emotions plus the link between these two, there is only one conclusion at the end of the topic. And that is; people often draw lines and follow the lines, rules set by it within the boundaries, people who cross the line and mostly it is the guys who does that, thus giving the blanket impression that ‘all guys are natural playboys’ in some ladies regardless of age.

Guys in the past change girlfriends like nothing, giving ladies the impression of being a playboy, but after years of thinking, and understanding from different perspective, guys change girlfriends only when their other half step beyond the line and try to have more control over something which results in arguments and unhappiness leading to break-ups which also happens in ladies breaking up with guys too for similar reasons.

Now-a-days, the line is further being blurred and more towards the grey area with the media coverage of skimpy, revealing clothes and designs which give the young minds a wrong education over the television, fashion fads and trends and even within individuals be it at work, play or home.

The boundary is no longer clear, emotion, love and sex are mixed up in the young minds which leads to more problems than what ordinary people can handle which is why nationals and politicians are having headaches over marriage issues, abortion, pregnancy issues in many countries across the globe.

To solve the global problem, there is a simple solution to the problem. List out and define your own line, limitations, principles and follow whatever rules, terms and conditions which you have set to eliminate all these potential problems which will surface without clear rules implement order in place to keep it well oiled like a smooth running machine that never breaks down or jams up.

Always draw and distinguish a clear line to eradicate all potential problems even before they have any slightest chance of growth in our mind or heart whichever way you like it.

Line is what sets the huge gap between poverty or wealthy, rich or poor.

If you want to say good-bye to poverty, welcome wealth and riches, than start defining your own line(s).

Indignation is a strong displeasure at something considered unjust; it is a righteous anger.

This feeling is felt by yourself and the people when project or work credits have being stolen by people who knows you. It can be your family member, colleague or competitor trying to claim credit for what you have done.

When credits care being stolen away or you realized you have being backstabbed, you often feel unjust and wants to get back at that person resulting in hatred and wants revenge.

There are two ways whereby people get revenge and that will go about doing it which is either positive or negative revenge.

Negative revenge is what we often see, hear and talk about. It is the way practiced by the poor, using whatever means and ways possible for revenge at the expense of ruin oneself just to see that justice has being served duly. Common revenge methods will be sabotage, gossiping discredit a person and discriminating against that particular person. This way, not only is the offender by the victim both suffers at the end.

Positive revenge is what is done by the wealthy and successful entrepreneurs and businessmen. They will form alliance, share helpful information, discredit only those unsatisfactory business partners or have had negative experiences before and amplify the results of isolating that particular person who has being blacklisted by an entrepreneur. This is whereby the consequences will only be one way and it is to completely eliminate the blacklisted person while increasing their business and relationship ties making it stronger.

The person who offended that entrepreneur will have no idea why and how his/her reputation is decreasing with time and less business and projects being tasked to that person.

Look at how businesses, companies take out one another and how companies who survive the war emerge stronger than before.

If you’re not into business, than probe more into boy-girl relationship, and get yourself updates on what happens after a failed relationship if not look at martial arts which is more neutral.

Girls will think of ways to get back at the boys making herself and him look equally both bad, while boys on the other hand will ignore the girls previously, working together with their common friends, discussing on which new girls to be their next targets and even share their ex-girlfriends contacts with one another.  This applies to even ladies and gentlemen, especially those people with sour grapes personalities.

People who practice martial arts will be the prime example of positive revenge via ethical means. When a challenger loses to a winner, he or she will than go back and reflect, work on their weakness and improve for the next challenge. It is either a win lose or on par for the next challenge and they move on with whatever they want. This is more of the balanced approach.

Learn to handle your emotions well and stay on the right track; do not ever let your emotions run wild hurting not only yourself but others in the process.
