@jaynie,

Hi Jaynie.

This may seem like a strange entry. It is not a "song" in the traditional sense, "lyrics embedded in a melody."

But lyrics are but poetry ... and poetry, recited to the accompaniment of music, is how the whole process got started several thousand years ago.

The following is a commercial made by Dow Chemical. It is, without doubt, the most beautiful commercial I have ever seen (and I'm in advertising). The words are "poetic prose" and overlay and incredibly poignant piece of music called, "New Harmony Waltz," by Susan Voelz.

I cannot help but think of Steemit as I listen to these words. All this talk of blockchains and decentralization. Steemit is about people, not technology, and, ironically, when these people become friends, all they want to do is "centralize" ... to get together in person. To shake a hand, buy a beer and share a laugh. Or a tear.

With all the discussions about technology this or technology that, this is a phenomenon of which I think we often lose sight. What matters is not the "computer code" ... but the "genetic" one.

And here's New Harmony Waltz by itself.
