How many times has music saved me? Saved my soul. Saved my life. Saved my sanity. Music is one of the strongest forces ever to exist on this earth. Cheery music to give you that little push towards being just a little happier. Music that brings back memories to the best and worst days of your life. Music that makes you feel to your very core. Feel everything all at once. Makes you crave more of the feeling and the music. Sometimes it can match your mood or sometimes it can create a whole new mood. Just lay back, close your eyes and feel it. All of it. Every note, every beat, every chord, every rest. Over and over and over again, replay and feel, replay and remember, replay and learn, replay over and over. It goes way past your ears, your mind, your heart, your soul. Music goes into your very essense, your very existence. I have sometimes wondered if there are people who don’t feel it. Who don’t breathe it, who don’t live for the feeling, the experience of it. I don’t mean like I like this song or this artist or this lyric. I mean take it into your very heartbeat. Feel the vibrations talk to your soul. If those people do exist, I feel so very bad for them. How can you exist if you don’t feel the music? The warmth of it, the softness of it, the bare soul of it? The power of it, the strength of it, sometimes even the fury of it. Does music make you feel the emotions or do the emotions make the music what you feel it is? Both I think. Both. Why does every show or movie have a soundtrack, the background music? It’s how they make you feel. You could have the greatest love story ever told or the best comedy that has you rolling but without the music carrying you along, it would just be a story. A tale to be told. But without the music you wouldn’t FEEL so much. You wouldn’t feel the love. And we all know, love is the answer. Every time.
