84. Music
Music is a structure series of events. Destroy the order and it becomes just noise. The instruments and sheets of music still exist. But without the order of the process it ceases to be music.

The human mind is just like that. As long as it functions we exist. A symphony of the brain. Smash the brain and all the matter and energy are still there. But the order and process that gave rise to our mind have been forever destroyed.

It is a precious thing. It is something to guard and cherish. But do not become so overwhelmed with the prospect of losing it that you never allow yourself to hear its music.
