The most powerful force of nature on the surface of the Earth is the human race. If we were to change our direction away from the pursuit of domination and monopolisation, the world would change for the better.

People are taught to be very aggressive and greedy in our society. If they were to treat their own personal world around them better, that would spread. It would influence the people and animals they come in contact with and make them nicer.

I say this mainly because I've been flabbergasted by people claiming to represent good causes who seem to be uncomfortably aggressive to those around them.

To love means to care, i.e. to put care into, to nurture and help grow.

The greatest environmental concern should be to stop the destruction of wild habitats because that is the world itself, not just to count carbon credits but because it would be reprehensible to destroy it.

If you do consider global warming, of course there are many reasons why it's the answer there too. Here's an experiment. Find a place where there is still Rainforest but only few miles away it's been turned to desert, and measure the temperature at both places. Pick any height off the ground, from the forest floor to a reasonable height above the canopy and I bet the difference will be significant, maybe ten degrees?

When and if the leaders of human race learn to wield their responsibilities in a less selfish fashion, I would suggest that large tracts of land, particularly in Africa be protected forests.

For many centuries, people have devoted lives to making artificial noises. Laws were worked out to define what was considered pleasing to the ear. Giant elaborate contraptions such as church organs were invented and built with painstaking attention to detail. Why would people do such things?

This is the most important thing.

I believe it should be because music makes you feel something that you involve yourself with it. You should write and practise music guided by your own feelings. If somebody gives you an opinion, it should still be ultimately your decision. In some sense, it might even seem selfish to write music for yourself that satisfies your desires, but you see, if you don't feel something yourself when you work on your music, then how do you know what your audience is supposed to feel? Think about that. Find words to describe it to yourself.

To be professional, it may be necessary to craft a music well, or to perform pieces you might not always like. Ultimately, though, you should be searching for something you yourself feel.

I would advocate a less sexually segregated society that allows single people to meet a variety of others and interact without being pressurised into one-night-stands and loveless marriages. And they shouldn't be required to pay a middleman to meet each other. Then it would be possible for people find out for themselves what they really want and future generations might experience happiness.

Music is a beautiful and peaceful artform and that is the only way women and children could like it.

If you see it as a scam for groupies, I guarantee then that girls won't like you because their self-preservation instincts are a deep force of nature. In fact, the self-preservation instincts of half the human race have to be counted as one of the most powerful forces of nature on the surface of the globe. You'll see.

Actually this is unfinished but given the world is so completely fucked, I hope it might help some people. It helped me when I was young and losing respect for the adult world. Is there a God? How do you know? A lot of awful old christian pillars of the community put me right off, but then so do the atheists fervently converting me. It's quite a difficult topic so I have to choose my words carefully.

• All physical matter is fundamentally the same, made from the same sub-atomic particles and subject to the same forces and laws.
• Under the right conditions, physical matter can grow into living organisms.
• Therefore physical matter has an intrinsic property of life. Just as water has the intrinsic property of boiling under the right conditions, matter under the right conditions will form organisms such as bacteria, living toads, squirrels and people.
• A part of the more complex organisms is a conscious mind, a spirit.
• Therefore the ability to form a mind is another intrinsic property of matter and energy.
• The mind of an organism is therefore a subset of all consciousness throughout the universe
• You may call all this consciousness a great spirit. Other names might be God, Allah and Jehovah
• When an organism dies, the energy we call its consciousness will disperse and become one with the greater world again.

If you play a musical instrument, you have to develop a coordination for rhythm and a faculty for hearing the way notes work together in melody and harmony. Part of it is developing your ear and you have to go through some training before you can do it. All the great composers were also performers like Bach, Mozart and Beethoven, even the Beatles otherwise they wouldn't have had such sophisticated ideas and be remembered today.
