yin lao shi said something today which struck me quite hard. or rather, it made me realise my ignorance.
he said playing music means literally 'playing'. music is something enjoyable, a kinds of happiness you seek. if one feels stressed over a piece of music, then he/she would not be playing music. instead, the notes will be 'playing' you. in this case, won't many musicians not be fulfilling their role as a musician. how many performers feel stressed over a performance. i guess its countless. to play music, one needs to have full control of the notes. when they fully immerse themselves and lose themselves in what they play, they are playing music. its all about being natural. its all about the heart.
there are so many things to learn a lifetime is never enough.

i think the silent night is a wonderful time for one to recollect one's thoughts, alone. no doubt company is important, spending time with oneself is also as important. thinking about it, we don't really get to spend a lot of time with ourselves in a lifetime.
i think i should go slp now. lyly said i'm crazy to not slp when i have the chance. haha.
