Why Music?

I've been drawn to music most of my life. In the past, it's been able to express emotions when I didn't have the words to communicate how I felt.

What is it about music that draws a person in?

Music is art for the masses. It is easily accessible, yet pure emotion.

Music speaks to our souls. Reminds us to enjoy life, to love, to breathe. Music is more than the notes played or the poetic words sung. The synergy of the two, mixing and melding, creates a new energy, spinning though the universe.

In looking at old musings, I realized that music is what has set me free. Free from repression, from depression, from fear and regression.


Maybe this is why most of my fictional dream lovers are musicians. The fellows who created this music: I'll always have a place in my heart for them.
