The World

The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it.

Children

I am so excited about this subject. Children are the most brilliant people in the world. And I can finally talk about them because I have time to.

Okay so I went to an elementary school today to play bass ( I gave presentations to 3rd, 4th, 5th graders) They first off were the most adorable thing I have ever seen. And second their eyes went really big when I started playing (It did not matter what I played because they wanted to hear the sound rather than know the technique.

Which brings me to my next topic. Why are students not able to learn these subjects of fine art, such as strings in elementary school? Not only does it help students learn about music, it also gives them something to do that is not as stressful as something such as math or science.

Even the principals of schools, PRINCIPALS, are not letting students get their hands on a violin until middle school. It just really makes me upset.

So let your child play an instrument. Let them explore. Let them master for life.
