That said, like you said, it does help to know and like the creator. The two aren't completely unrelated. ari Hi Tom,

It was the part of the song that really stepped it up that did it. As I have truthfully shared with you before. I can honestly support you as a man and entrepreneur without necessarily loving your music. Yet I heard something different in that song that I responded to. Growing up I was never a metal fan but I found it interesting to watch parts of the top 100 heavy metal songs on VH1. I think it was because of the story connected to them. That's also why I support and follow you. You're authoring you're own story as authentically as you can and that's inspiring. <abbr><em>Tom Volkar / Delightful Work´s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DelightfulWork/~3/414178961/" rel="nofollow">Authoring Your Own Life</a></abbr></em> Ari – it’s good that your music inspired me to faster typing.

I do think what you have to share is very important, and you do it so well, so courageously. Oh, and I did know about your being a musician! Still listen to some punk rock? ;-) I've always been a goody-two-shoes with closet dream of being a punk, but musically I've always been more of a metalhead than punk. In fact, I'm surprised how I'm getting into heavier stuff the older I get. Here I thought getting older was about growing mellower. ;-) But then, I sing in a church choir, too. ;-) Really, inside my head is a huge bag of diverse music. I've been trying to figure out how to unbag them all. :-) I've got a good start. ari Hey Melinda,

I got to meet some new bloggers, and it gave me a lot of food for thought. The bit about my community is just a teaser. I'm mulling over some ideas and will make a bigger announcement about it in the near future. And... is it good or bad that my music made you type faster? What I was hoping for was that you couldn't help but listen to it and it made you stop typing.... ;-) ari Hi Tom,

I always like hearing about these efforts. Put me on the list to get more info for your intimate group. I'll listen to what you have in mind. I think it's a brilliant move to post your music on your blog. I listened to it while posting my comment and I think it made me type faster. :) <abbr><em>Tom Volkar / Delightful Work´s last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DelightfulWork/~3/434003939/" rel="nofollow">Clarity Empowers Progress</a></abbr></em> Ari, Thanks for the link to our community leveraging experiment.
