Summary
Once it had fingerprints, and now rust whispers harshly along the edge. Cookbooks even, a small pile there, speak in a thousand crumbs stuck between each page. Maybe there's laughter faintly calling out from a box of shabby, well-loved toys. Even the grime and mold and dirt has its stories to tell.
But who's to say what you really hear?
"When we make music we don't do it in order to reach a certain point, such as the end of the composition. If that were the purpose of music then obviously the fastest players would be the best. Also, when we are dancing we are not aiming to arrive at a particular place on the floor as in a journey. When we dance, the journey itself is the point, as when we play music the playing itself is the point."
- Alan W. Watts
