own choices, should be enough reason to make us feel both privileged and obligated to consequences.
The sheer potential for both good and bad that we humans are capable of achieving is quite humbling sometimes. On one side, we can be a force for evil by killing, hurting, stealing, raping, deceiving and driving mass destruction. On the other hand, we can just as much be a positive force for compassion, empowering, creating art, inventing and driving change in beneficial ways.
An orchestra is a beautiful analogy of how various personalities (being the different musical instruments and elements) at their best and under good direction can be combined to create something far greater and powerful than any one individual can achieve alone. The performance itself and the natural reactions of the people in this clip are priceless.
