Music. 'Nuff Said.

What is it about music?

Music is one my constant companions in life. I am never without it. I get separation anxiety when I don’t have music with me. At times when I find myself alone or lonely, music is there. It’s one of the few things in life I know that won’t disappoint me and that could brighten my day in an instant.

Music can speak volumes and volumes in a matter of minutes. Sometimes you find yourself just enveloped by it, be it by its beauty or its sadness or its anger or any other emotion that mirrors your heart, and then you feel like you’re living out the words and the melodies. When the music stops you just sit there, trying to bring back that moment, that magic. And you press play again because you just know that the music can answer your questions. Questions that you don’t even know you’re asking.

Music is a product of passion and of heart. That is why music can be different. Because we are all different and we speak from different hearts and we feel passion for different things and different people. We may come from all over the world and we all may have never met before but we share the music.

Music is universal. It is everywhere. It is in our souls and it beats within our hearts. It can convey so many different things and affect so many people. It can bring us joy. It can cause us to breakdown in tears. It makes us want to rebel. It makes us unite. It makes us want to conquer the world.

Music transcends everything.

This why I love music.

Weekend Bliss

This is me on the weekend. In my biggest shirt reading a book with the curtains open.
