Twenty years after Miles Davis left
Twenty years ago today jazz great Miles Davis died. To put it simply he was a legendary giant of musical innovation who took music forward, created new ideas in jazz and broke the rules. However, Miles Davis broke the rules only because he knew what the rules were, he knew, studied and mastered the foundations of music and music theory and to say he was talented would be an understatement of criminal proportions.
What we take from Miles Davis, his music, his vision and his journey is for the individual to decide. But his drive, ingenuity and foresight is an inspiration that anyone can embrace.
And in honor of Miles Davis, his life and his journey we here at Rootnetwork say:
Try your absolute hardest at something you have always wanted
Tell someone what you really think
Accept the challenge of what may be the hardest thing you will ever do
Attempt something new
Talk to someone that doesn't think or believe the same as you
Go somewhere new
Walk away when you know it's wrong
Stand your ground when you know it's right
When you're down, pick yourself up
If you need help...ask
Step back and laugh at yourself
Find a way to make yourself proud
Do something embarrassing
Love because you're actually in love and not because you are lonely
Allow yourself to be inspired by something different
Be better today than you were yesterday
MILES DAVIS (May 26, 1926 – September 28, 1991)
