CRY WITH ME

[thepictureofdorianmode]

Beethoven 7 or Shostakovich 5 tbh

if u could only listen to one symphony for the rest of your life, what would u choose

[thepictureofdorianmode]

“…I am deaf. Ah how could I possibly admit such an infirmity in the one sense which should have been more perfect in me than in others, a sense which I once possessed in highest perfection, a perfection such as few surely in my profession enjoy or have enjoyed - O I cannot do it, therefore forgive me when you see me draw back when I would gladly mingle with you, my misfortune is doubly painful because it must lead to my being misunderstood, for me there can be no recreations in society of my fellows, refined intercourse, mutual exchange of thought, only just as little as the greatest needs command disposition, although I sometimes ran counter to it yielding to my inclination for society, but what a humiliation when one stood beside me and heard a flute in the distance and I heard nothing, or someone heard the shepherd singing and again I heard nothing, such incidents brought me to the verge of despair, but little more and I would have put an end to my life - only art it was that withheld me, ah it seemed impossible to leave the world until I had produced all that I felt called upon me to produce, and so I endured this wretched existence - truly wretched, an excitable body which a sudden change can throw from the best into the worst state - Patience - it is said that I must now choose for my guide, I have done so, I hope my determination will remain firm to endure until it please the inexorable parcae to break the thread, perhaps I shall get better, perhaps not, I am prepared."  Heiligenstadt October 6, 1802 Ludwig van Beethoven For my brothers - to be read and executed after my death.

Besides the graphemes (alphabets and numbers) having different colours this video makes me feel slightly more normal

This video helps explain how synesthetes might experience the world.

[Warning: if you’re a synesthete, the color associations in this video might be very wrong to you.]
