Music:
The universal inspiration
Music has always
mattered to me, heck music has mattered to a whole lot of people, from
Beethoven to Bob Dylan, as well as the fact that music has shaped cultures and people’s
lives throughout the world. Music is a universal language and art that can be
loved and appreciated from anyone and bring people together from anywhere around
some sweet tones and melodies.
Music has greatly
shaped my life in both big and small ways, from being in orchestra throughout high
school, too preforming music at shows, music has introduced me to many different
people and experiences that I probably wouldn't have had without it. A world
without music isn't even possible for me to imagine as I have music almost 24/7
as it fills me with joy as it changes the normal day to day into an experience,
with millions of people’s interpretations of life making up the sound track of
mine. Whether I will be listening to
music in the car or jamming out with my friends, music always has something to
give me and in turn I can create music to give to everyone else.
Overall music has been
the one hobby of mine that has made the biggest impact in my life and is the
one that I am the most passionate about. Music will be a part of my life indefinitely
as it continues to entrances me in all of its lows and highs, and all of its
beautiful and emotional tones.
I'm with you: music is magic. I always wonder what part of evolution made music such a profound thing for human beings (question: are there any animals who respond to music on a deep level?).
ReplyDeleteFor me, the part of your post I'd have liked to see covered with more detail is this:
...music has introduced me to many different people and experiences that I probably wouldn't have had without it.
This would be a great place to get specific, as it's the specifics that really stick with readers more than generalities.
I love music too but I guess I'm not super passionate about it. You are definitely more into then I am and that's awesome! The world needs that so we HAVE great music to listen to. :) I agree with Jocelyn, what experiences have you had that you wouldn't have had without your in depth passion of music? What people? Otherwise you did a wonderful job! I love that I can just tell from your writing that you are in love with music :)
ReplyDeletep.s. I used to pass by Dylan's old house in Hibbing every day that I went to school!
