Don’t allow for your talents to go to waste. You must use them. Work on them. Improve them. Show the world what it is that you bring to this universe; whether it be in pounding crowds, or the subtlety of silence.

For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

Not everyone will contribute the exact same things to the rest of the world. Some will be talented in one area, while others in another. The important thing is that everyone contributes, not how they’re expected to, but how they’re created to do best.

Sound Therapy? Top Ten Most Relaxing Tunes
The British Academy of Sound Therapy has apparently shortlisted the 10 most relaxing tunes, with “Weightless” by Marconi Union topping the list:
“While listening, your heart rate gradually comes to match that beat. It is important that the song is eight minutes long because it takes about five minutes for this process, known as entrainment, to occur. The fall in heart rate also leads to a fall in blood pressure.
The harmonic intervals - or gaps between notes - have been chosen to create a feeling of euphoria and comfort. And there is no repeating melody, which allows your brain to completely switch off because you are no longer trying to predict what is coming next. 
Instead, there are random chimes, which helps to induce a deeper sense of relaxation. The final element is the low, whooshing sounds and hums that are like buddhist chants. High tones stimulate but these low tones put you in a trance-like state.”
–Lyz Cooper, Founder of BAST
Here is the full list:
1. Marconi Union - Weightless  2. Airstream - Electra  3. DJ Shah - Mellomaniac (Chill Out Mix)  4. Enya - Watermark  5. Coldplay - Strawberry Swing  6. Barcelona - Please Don’t Go  7. All Saints - Pure Shores  8. Adele - Someone Like You  9. Mozart - Canzonetta Sull'aria  10. Cafe Del Mar - We Can Fly
*Note: not sure about the validity of this so-called research, consider it more as just for fun

Massage Therapy: How Not to Describe What You Do for a Living.
I pull people’s underwear down all day.
I touch naked people.
My job includes warmed oil and moaning.
I’ve seen more T&A than a bouncer at a strip club.
People tell me they love me and they hate me, often at the same time.
The words I hear most often are, “Holy shit that hurts! Please don’t stop.” followed up with, “It’s good pain. I can take it!”
It’s a bit like S&M. 
I get paid to hurt people, and they like it.
I tell people to take their clothes off.
People come to my house, get naked, money changes hands.
