Themes of Life


The Themes of Life, refers to really, filler material in all, that, simply, fills out, the empty, or, blank spaces, in, our lives. Blank spaces, that should be filled, with, 'Sounds', of Tranquility, Serenity or even, Peacefulness, but instead, are filled out, by, all kinds, of, noises, that are, disturbing, or even, aggravating, to say the least and in many ways too, make Life, seem, rather mundane, and in general, lacking, interest. A rather perhaps, difficult notion, to speak off [or spell out really], but Themes in all, are in all ways, similar, to what, Soundtrack, movie themes, are, to the movies [filler material, that in many ways too, helps, drive forward, the movie/story itself]. In many ways too, the Themes of Life, are strongly associated with, the evolutionary forces, of, Laughter, Crying and, Grief [being moved to experience, any of these, so as to grow in, one form or another]. In many ways in all, Life, very much, should be like, that, in, a beautiful painting, with its moods and atmospheres, and not, like, the noisy street environments, we today, inhabit, that, in most ways, tend to, affect, Life, in a way, not seen, in the past: Interruptions, Delays and, Breaks [all affecting Tranquility, Serenity and Peacefulness, respectively]. 

We shall classify, these Themes, not according to, Culture, Cultural Identities, and, civilization, as they have previously somewhat, been classified, but with regards really, to, Higher Beings, Continental Identities (Peoples), and finally, Material Existences. We shall show, how these, three, are better, definers, of Themes in Life, than those, of, Culture, Cultural Identities, and, civilization, by attempting to breakdown, Themes, into, their various parts: Higher Beings: Moods, Temperaments and Atmospheres Continental Identities (Peoples): Rhythms, Joys and Sorrows Material Existences: Sounds, Noises and Airs That in all, what is been said is that when, most, are totally, unsatisfied with Life, as it is, today, its because, of Themes [as extrapolated], just above. That in all, in todays World, all the above, are, pretty much, messed up, due mainly, not, to their traditional basis, on Culture, Cultural Identities, or even civilization, but due mainly, to, the open/obvious, mixing, of different cultures, which, in all, result, in, poor blends (of Themes), and affecting the above, mentioned, factors, considerably. 

The importance of Themes, are not only that, they, are, at the heart, of, Enthusiasm itself, in our lives [and in general, enforcing it, as they, are, very much too, associated with, forces, strongly linked to, Astrology, and of course, the, evolutionary forces, themselves]. In all, Themes are required, to help, uplift our Souls, to greater, levels [as Gospel music, attempts to do], and in many ways tell us, that, in all, Life, is supposed, to be, grand, and, a great Journey, of a kind. For those, totally unhappy about Life in general [as with thinking, too, that, Suicide, is an option with no, consequences, at all], then one, should know, that, the main problem they really face is that of Themes, and that begin transforming, ones Life, best begins, by, the perhaps, challenging [or even, difficult], task, of changing, the Themes, in, ones life. Below, will be the attempt to do this, in, a possible, simplistic manner, as, the changing of Themes, as mentioned just above, is not, that easy, but probably, can be, if, viewed, from the, perspective, of, Higher Beings, Continental Identities/Peoples, and even, Material Existences [and not, Culture, Cultural Identities, and, civilization, which can be, rather difficult to change, as, with problem solving]. In most ways, distorted Themes result in, environments [such as, modern, Cities], filled with, all forms, of, radiation [in the form really, of distortions], making many, eventually, want to, flee them, for, greener pastures [as with, small/mid-size towns] [Radiation in all that can be, harmful, to ones, physical body processes, and even, mental faculties]. 

Higher Being Themes: As just mentioned, not only Themes, linked to, Moods, Temperaments and Atmospheres, but also in all help to, deal, with, issues, springing up from, environments/themes, that, tend to, arouse, Arguments, Fights and, Provocations, of all kinds [in many ways, all these, today, aroused by, improper mixing, of, Cultures together]. The Themes mentioned here, are inspired, by, Philosophical works, of, various kinds:


Gargoyles: 'The Works of William Congreve: Three Volume Set' [Byzantine works].

 
Jinni: 'Christopher Marlowe Complete Plays' & 'The Complete Poems and Translations' by Christopher Marlowe.


Light beings: 'The Faerie Queene' by Edmund Spenser. 

 
Shapeshifts: 'The Complete English Poems by George Herbert' & 'The Complete Poems by Andrew Marvel'. 

 

Gods: 'The Rover and Others Plays by Aphra Behn' & 'The Country Wife and other Plays by William Wycherley' [works inspired 'perhaps', by, the Greek Gods].

 
Daemons: 'The Alchemist and other Plays by Ben Johnson' & 'Major Works by Jonathan Swift'.


The Constellations: 'She Stoops to Conquer and other Comedies by Oliver Goldsmith' & 'Four Revenge Tragedies by Katharine Eisaman Maus'.


Esicrucian Man: 'Tis Pity she's a Whore and other plays by John Ford' & 'Samuel Johnson: The Major Works by Samuel Johnson'. 

Continental Identities (Peoples) Themes: Continental identities, or Identities really, that, identify, what they call, the Peoples, of a Continent, are not, only, about, Rhythms, Joys and Sorrows [associated with, the Peoples (all of them, rich or poor; white or black), but are also, Identities, if not, well formulated, lead to, all sorts, of, Crimes, Violence and, Feuding [in all]. Crime, Violence and Feuding, not really, Political in nature but, mainly, Religious [as with, a, whole Continent] [Cultural Identities, lead only to, Political based, Crime, Violence, and Feuding] [The Religious types, of all these (Crime et. al.), are seen, to be, more, philosophical in nature (sane), than, the Political type]. These Identities, are probably, best formulated, via, listening, to the, Folk music, associated, intimately, with, ones Region [Folk music, that in most ways, speaks of, Rhythms, Joys and Sorrows (rather than watching, too much, Television)]: 

North America: Mexican Folk Music


[Perhaps, not enough, has been, said, of America and Mexico, other than, Wars, Feuding, and, even, Inter-border Romance; Yet still, one does find that, while Americans erroneously (as with, Canadians too), associate, their 'Folk selfs', with, Irish cultures, St. Patricks day, and especially, Boston, Americans (and Canadians too) really, as with Rhythms, Joys and Sorrows, are more, in tandem, with, Mexican Mariachi music (and especially, La Bamba/Los Lobos), than anything, by, an O'Reilly, O'Toole, or even, O'Harty]. 

South American: Bolivian Folk Music 


[Bolivia, and not, Peru, is at the heart, of, South American, Joys, Sorrows, and, Rhythms] 

Europe: Irish Folk Music 


[Irish Folk, should not be, confused, with, Celtic music (an example being, the, Dubliners); Fleetwood Mac though, is more or less, Irish (or Irish-American/Arthurian America); 'Shipping up to Boston', is more or less too, mostly, Irish folk] 

Africa: Lingala music

[

Despite the belief, in Africa, being, a heavily Musically inclined, Continent, most of its music, has, always been, rather, Religious, in nature. Lingala music, can be, ascribed, as being, more, of a, Folk music, than, popular music, as no, other music, unites, the African continent, together, with tales, speaking of, African Rhythms, Joys, and Sorrows, than Lingala (including, Coup de Boule)] 

Afrique: Symphonic Rock


[Perhaps, a rather, shocking, if not, highly surprising, entry; To understand this choice, is to know, and, understand, two things: first, that, the prevalent belief, that, Afrique, has been occupied, since, the beginnings of time (due to stories, of, Ancient Egyptians, sailing down there), is, mainly false. The only people, who did, develop, Civilization, in one form, or, another, in Afrique, where, the Swahili, and, the Aksumite/Nubians, in, Northern Ethiopia. Other peoples, one would call, Indigenous perhaps (such as, the Plain Nilotes), never did, fully, develop, a legitimate, way of life, and were, in many ways, wanderers, whose only, culture, truly consisted of, an Oral history. It was actually, the Victorians in Kenya, who did, come to develop, a way of life, seen, not only, in, Kenya, but also, very much, defining, the, general way of life in, both, Ethiopia, and, Somalia [Many Somalis (or Somaals), were actually, part, of the, Swahili Civilization; the others, came from, Aksum]. Second off, Symphonic Rock, in the form of, Ballads, was actually, the, kind of, music, sang/associated, with, the Victorians, in, Kenya (as with, Meatloaf, for example)] 

South East Asia: Punjab Folk Music


[India, without, Punjabi culture, is like, an India, without, Curry] 

East Asia: Taiwanese Folk Music


[When you think, Cool East Asians, you really, want to think, Taiwanese, and not, Japanese, or even, Korean (South)] 

The Middle East: Arabian Folk Music


[Perhaps, a perceived, surprising, or even, politically inclined, entry, by those, whom, immediately, acquaint the words, Middle East, above, with, Islamic/Byzantine; and while, the Islamic/Byzantine world, does mesh, with others, it is, the Arabians, of, Saudi Arabia, that have, come, to define, the spirit, of, the Middle East (as with the Soul), more, than, any other, Peoples] 

Material Existences Themes: Material Existences Themes, were previously, associated, with, the Sounds, Noises and Airs, seen, in ones environments. The belief that, the kind, of materials, used, to make, ones, Material Culture can, in many ways, disturbingly, affect one, sensually speaking as, with the case, of, shiny materiality making one, feel, nauseous. Material Existences though, as with, Themes, are also, associated, with, seeking out, Intimacy [respect, acceptance, attention], in ones life [especially, through Pop cultures, associated, with, the Materiality]. Below, will be presented, various, Pop cultures, which, can be used, to create, Intimacy, in our lives, and in many ways too, directly/indirectly, influence, our Environments [not only, from, the perspectives, of Noises (etc.), heard, but also, from, the perspective, of, defining, the Materiality itself (as with, Styling, Finishing, or even, Trimming)]. 

The Pop cultures presented here below, have their origins mainly, in, America; this should not, be a cause, of disapproval, or surprise even, as, America, is reknowed, for, creating, Pop cultures, some, which do catch, a fire, and spread, all over; many though, never do, get popular really, or even, become, commercially successful (in any way), but could be, of great use to others, out there, in helping, them, develop, Intimacy [Interestingly enough, America, is a country, reknowed mainly, for, having, Intimacy issues (even, within, relationships)]. 

North America: Country cultures and Country Rock Music


South America: Iberian culture and Hip Hop music

 
[Probably, a totally shocking, surprise (especially if one, was to think, Castro, or even, Chavez), but in many ways, some forms, of, Hip hop music, do go, very well, with, Iberian culture (an example, being, OG Rap). Yet still, perhaps, a controversial choice, but it is also, very much, believed that, South Americans, can do way, much better, with, this Art form, than, North Americans (who heavily, depend on, good production facilities)] 

Brittania: Normandy and Spanish/Acoustic Guitar 


France: Arabe and Lounge music


[Lounge music, can in many ways, be classified, as, Classical RnB, and consists often, of a, 4-piece band (Piano, Drums, Guitar and, Singer). Good examples include, Bryan McKnight, Vanessa Williams, and even, Mylene Farmer] [One should realize that, the purpose too, of these, Pop cultures, is to, provide, filler sounds (in many ways), to everyday, life/living. In all, these Pop cultures, should not, be, heavily, commercialized; truly needed, for a France, today, heavily imbued, with, African noises, and sounds] 

Western Europe: Bavarian-Nordic and Rock Music


Central Europe: Castilian cultures and British Pop Music


[From the Beatles, to, the Spice Girls, to Sade, to, Daniel Bedingfield, to Seal, to, Amy Winehouse, and even, Duffy, to Oasis & Leona Lewis, and even, Michael Jackson; the list, is in many ways, rather endless] 

Eastern Europe: Austro-Hungarian Empire and Metal Music

 
[Basketball, does go, way much better, with Metal Music, than with Hip Hop Music] 

Scandinavia: Prussian cultures and Pop Rock Music


[Other such acts, include, Roxette, and even, Pearl Jam] 

Africa: Haute Couture/Western cultures and Reggae Music


Afrique: Victorian cultures and Grunge Rock


[Sugar Ray, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, and even, Guns 'n' Roses] [Suits the Moods, Noises, Atmospheres, Sounds, and even, Rhythms, of Nature, seen, in Afrique, rather than, Reggae Music] 

South East Asia: The British Raj and Bhangra Music


[Bhangra Music, actually, has its origins, in, East Africa. Apache Indian, 'was', an Indian, of, East African origins] 

East Asia: Heian cultures and Blues Music


[The House of Blues; Better, than, Karaoke] 

The Middle East: French TriColour and Neo-Soul Music


[From K'naan, to Talib Kweli and even, The Roots]
