The dramatic story of Tina the tuning-fork

The dramatic story of Tina the tuning-fork

All you ever needed to know about life coaching!

419d60c5.jpg

Tina was a tuning fork who was created as a ‘Middle C’ resonator. That meant that when Tina was stimulated, she beamed out a sound or frequency representing ‘Middle C’. Tina had no say in her manufacture and so had no choice but to accept her frequency.

Wherever Tina went she beamed out her frequency. That’s where she learned the first BIG lesson in life, resonance. Tuning forks generating similar frequencies cause each other to resonate in sympathy. And that’s not just the dominant frequency, but also all the sub-frequencies or harmonics of the primary frequency.

But Tina had a problem. She didn’t like the frequencies of all the tuning forks that were resonating with her. They left her uninspired to the point that she began to question 'what's it all about?'. And that’s when Tina learnt the next BIG lesson in life: The frequencies that resonate with you reflect your own frequency. And if you don’t like other tuning forks because of their frequencies, you actually don’t like your own frequency!

It was at about this time that Tina chanced to meet a tuning fork with a ‘D Minor’ frequency. Tina was over the moon. She just loved the 'D Minor' frequency. What an inspiration! Fortunately D Minor was a very sensitive and empathic tuning fork. He recognized Tina’s dilemma and assisted her in making the necessary changes to her tuning fork to replace her ‘Middle C’ with a ‘D Minor’ generator.

Within no time, Tina was resonating with a whole lot of new ‘D Minor' tuning forks, with all the new harmonics. It was like music to her ears!

Tina and D Minor formed an inseparable, harmonious bond. And together with all her new D Minor resonators, frequented happily ever after.

The End

Ha ha. I guess it depends on the scale of things as to whether you’re in treble or not. 🤣😂🤣

I guess what you’re saying base-ically is that if you orchestrate the eloping with a minor, you’re forked and flattened either way!

Your tale, Ian, had the right tone (well actually three) to strike a chord with me. But I'm sure that Middle C would have been happier marrying the Major, who would have elevated her to E. Alternatively she could have run off with the Minor, falling for E flatly, and still been in a harmonious relationship. I hope that she sees through old D Minor, as he's an imposter in the guise of a tuning fork, being simply an unattached and unemployed note on strike (ie neither scale nor chord) and hence neither capable of holding down a commission (major) nor digging holes for a living (minor), and therefore incapable of forming harmonious relationships.

Thanks for the kind words Debasish Majumder I came across this article which was written a while ago and thought it appropriate to share the message again at this time.
