Bob Dylan

I was never much of a Bob Dylan fan, even though I was always told by everybody that he was just plain genius.  I have come to truly respect his views on things and appreciate what he has done in the world.  After reading the transcription I felt even more kinship with him and the mechanisms that allowed for that were; his hardworking ethic and his persistence.  He believed in what he was doing completely as did others.  So, with love and support of members of his music industry community he became successful and recognized as a prolific musician and composer.  That very point is something that i believe is fundamental to thriving today and integral to the survival of our society.  Passing good energy from mentor or teacher to student or aspirant, being easy with how others use or incorporate what we ourselves have produced.  Honoring ourselves, those that have come before us and those that follow is a true mark of greatness.  We should always be mindful of where we are going, where we are from, and those we meet on our path.
