All day, I've just been gritting my teeth through my grueling workday, until I could make it to this point when I can just do what I've wanted to do all day: focus and reflect on David Bowie and his music.
He was the first to do a lot of things, to break fearlessly through a lot of boundaries, to be outrageous. He broke gender norms when nobody dared to. Now when rock stars do that, no one thinks a thing of it. He defied categorization as an musician, being impossible to pin into one or even several genres. He was avant-garde in everything he did, seemingly fearless about how society might judge him and definitely impossible to label in any way except: brilliant.
He opened minds and opened doors. He colored outside the lines and he colored with no lines. He touched my heart and my soul, moved me, inspired me, affirmed me, and set my imagination free...his music makes my heart beat stronger.
