Last night, when my busy mind was trying to make sense of all this, I fell asleep listening to somebody making sense about Quantum Physics.
.
Making sense of Quantum Physics seemed to include the realizations that the world (including each of us) is 99.999999999% empty space, nothing ever touches anything else, and things can exist in more than one place simultaneously.
My way of making sense of all this is to blog daily, facilitate therapy groups, and create and share original songs.
.
Making sense of all my songs includes assigning a genre to each tune and I don’t know if they are inspirational, folk, comedy, pop, vocal, children’s music, vocal, or (as ChatGPT suggests) spoken word (?).
While you’re making sense of all this, here are my other images for today.

Here’s the YouTube video making sense of Quantum Physics:

Sweet dreams!
Thanks to all who are doing their best making sense of all this, including YOU!
The term “inspirational” when applied to books seems to refer mostly to Christian themes, though that doesn’t appear to carry over to music genres.
Thanks for defining that term, Debbie.
I think you’ve discovered your own genre, Ann. And that’s a good thing until the outside world wants you to pick a label that’s already out there.
I always love discovering your comments, Mark.
@MikeRey6192 I agree. Furthermore, not only is this not the country I grew up in, but it is also not the country MAGA grew up in. I try to keep that in mind.
As for your genre, Ann, I would start by picking more creative song titles. “Everybody’s Somebody’s Asshole” is very good (and Scared Shitless and others), but something more like, “Am I Wearing Pants?” for “I left the house before I felt ready”. Stuff like “Other People’s Anger” might use that treatment too. Then make up your own genre. Alternative Self-Help? Nah. Too something. Alternative maintenance? Nah. But you get the idea. Evolution? Evolution Therapy? I’ll stop now.
Thanks for your comment, Barbara, but I’ll stick with my titles.
A book that’s helped me make sense of, well, some things is The Disappearing Spoon by Sam Kean. Why some women don’t get credit for extraordinary accomplishments in science doesn’t make sense to him but he highlights what they did. And he wrote the first definition of “quantum leap” that makes sense to me: when electrons pick up extra energy they move to a higher orbit. Then they fall back to their lower orbit and the energy they lose becomes light. This is how, among other things, fluorescent bulbs work.
Thanks to your good sense, Chris, I’ve placed a hold on Sam Kean’s books on the Libby app.
I find it impossible to make sense of all of it, so I just try to make as much sense as I can myself )
You always make sense, beth!
