Humility and Humiliation two different words, with two different meanings.

The mindset that I wish to live in a fantasy world is very important to me because I use that in composing music that has beautiful fantasy-like emotion to it and such and I do not want anything in reality to interfere with it. Although there are people who do use inspiration from reality and use that to compose music, I am not this type of person at all. I can use my inspiration from fantasy to achieve greatness and success in life just as good (if not better) than those people who do with inspiration from reality. Therefore, this right here says that my personal delusions of grandeur through fantasy will not have negative consequences. Instead, it is the exact opposite and I will be a successful composer in life because of it.

What the **** does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

Bro, your poor self esteem radiates through out your posts that are as crazy as crack. I just want you to understand the difference between humility and humiliation. Humiliation is what you are going through with this pyschotic thread, and if you aren't you freakin should be. Humility would be excepting that your veiws suck wind and taking a moment to revaluate where your ego has lead you. But I think at this point you just like the attention we are giving you, negative, or negative. (Because I have yet to see a postivitive response to your stuff yet.)

I disagree. If you wish to live in a fantasy world and that's what your brain believes than it's true. The brain is a beautiful thing to control reality so fantasy isn't really fantasy. If your brain lives in a fantasy than it's actually reality so you can get inspiration without having to wish to live in a fantasy to acquire said inspiration. Furthermore, your delusions of grandeur do not exist because if you believe in the greatness of yourself than it must be true even if it's only true to you. As long as it's true to one person it carries weight. You will be a successful composer no matter what as long as you are happy with the music you create. You don't have to be humble about the greatness of your creations because you know they are great and greatness to ones self is the only thing that is important to the reality of the brain. It is the other people living in their fantasy world of negativity trying to cut down your wonderful productions because they can't accept the reality of the fantasies you live.

Don't let these haters bring you down Matt. Rock on!

@Matt

you know what i think your problem is? that you don't get the dualism of things and how that dualism balances an individual.
a normal person feels both emotions, happiness and sadness
as well as confidence and humility, it's ok to have an ego and to have imagination but it's also good for you to be a humble realist.

But you seem like you need to believe one side is right and the other one is wrong and because of that you've become an extremist person who either has to be happy all the time or depressed.

But hey, that's just my opinion i could be wrong.
In the church of Black Francis instead of saying amen at the end we say "Andalusia!"

Now I have neither any sense of humility or humiliation and do not feel any negative emotion whatsoever of posts here that either criticize or make fun of me. I am all cool and smug about it and feel superior and such for feeling that way and not being affected by anyone else's views. I may come across as some angry spoiled whiny brat posting here, but I am not angry at all either--I am just simply posting my beliefs here out of pure interest of what others have to say about them.

Many people think that those who live in a fantasy world are somehow weak or useless to society, but this couldn't be further from the truth. I am using my "living in a fantasy world" mindset to compose music. Composing music is something that greatly contributes to society (even pieces of music that have fantasy-like emotion to them since even these types of music are honored by many people whether it just be instrumental or even with lyrics and such).
