THIS IS A WAY

A theme written for one of my all-time favorite mystery series...America's favorite detectives: The Hardy Boys.

THE HARDY BOYS | MAIN THEME

I composed and performed this for the final assignment of Berklee's Electronic Music Performance Techniques course on Coursera.

I chose to call this Quest because despite trying to follow my heart to navigate through life, still it often seems to lead me astray. I try to be honest to myself and follow my intuitions to choose what I think is the right and best path, but then actions by agencies out of my control create apparently insurmountable blocks. I wonder how I can get pushed so far off course by simply being true to myself.  It's almost as if life is teaching me I should not go where I think I want to go.

In the image, no path exists to the other side of the lake, at least not directly. My heart tells me I want to reach the other side.  But when I find upon reaching the end of the existing path no way forward, what do I do? Keep following it to see where it actually leads, hoping it will eventually get me there or somewhere else?  Or make my own path, which may require me to get wet or find or build a boat?

So, I'm discovering I'm on an endless quest to where I really don't know.
