I would like to contribute my humble thoughts. I am not looking to upset anyone or cause confrontation, just expressing my thoughts.
We live in a world that deprived us of true individuality, clear insight into life, how to reason and most of all the truth. Our education system which is responsible for this (mainstream commonfolk education system) is designed to get us to conform, obey the law and allow the rich to toy with society at large. In general the system does not reinforce enough that everything should be questioned. Most everything that is said or beleived by individuals is just repeated and never evaluated. Everything the media pushes on us is to distract us from real issues. Proof is what "they" get away with.
I don't want to rant but this is the heart of the matter. We have been lied to from day one to such a large extent that the truth is nearly impossible to find. Sure it works for the most part, the country is stable, but at what expense. What percentage of the population understands and enjoys fine cuisine, good music and cultural destinations ? Food is not explicitely to arouse our taste senses only but to nourish us as well. This contributes to robust health and balanced cognitive function. We need to nourish ourselves in order to function optimally, but without knowing this we can not reverse this destructive cycle.
We should be spoiling ourselves! Fine food, vacations to cultural destinations, concert subscriptions etc. should be a part of everyones life!! But because the rich run our country the middleclass cannot afford to live a fullfilling life because it is paying more than it should in taxes.
Audiophiles represent a segment of society with higher intellect. We appreciate music, an artform that moves the soul. We connect with musicians and composers. Music makes us happy. We learned to think for ourselves and don't blindly follow mags reviews.
I would tend to believe most audiophiles are moved by food as well.
We should be enjoying life and loving what we do.
Ask yourself- Am I enjoying my listening sessions?
We all have different tastes and perceptions. Find what works for you and take it to a higher level by exploring different components or rituals.
And by the way my hearing is influenced by my diet and supplementation, it may make a difference for you as well.
I hope what I said helped. If it angered anyone just ignore what I said most of my shallow friends do and I prefer it that way.
In the end I would like to see everyone have fun and find meaning in life.
