My Love Of Music

Music can be used to describe how we feel on the inside when we ourselves can’t seem to find the words. Music has the power to help us discover ourselves or remember something we may have lost. I think Paulnack is right when he states that music can bring people together. Many people like the same genres and styles and feel something when they listen to it. Music can be found all over the world and can be related to everything around us. Music has been a part of our culture since the beginning of history, it’s constantly evolving giving each generation their on form of expression. Just by appreciating music as an art from we can make connections to those who are different from

There are so many things in my life, that I am overly grateful, appreciative, and thankful for. My family, friends, good health, a roof over my head, and being able to do the thing I love and enjoy most, dance.

Music is a key factor in my life, now and has been for as long as I remember. Music is one thing that can control my mood and emotions unlike any other. The sounds and melodies of the composition have the potential to sway my moods from a dark gloomy state all the way to a joyous and soothing harmonic atmosphere. Music allows me to control how and what I want to be, or represent. Music is almost like picking out a favorite outfit. When one picks out an outfit to wear they most likely pick an outfit that expresses them and how they are feeling at that direct moment. They have the ability to change shoes, accessories, or their hairstyle to make it

Music is something that builds ideas, inspires, destroys, and enlightens people. Music in history has changed throughout the ages, music now is incredibly different in sound compared to the way it use to be. One thing that has not changed is the feeling, the way a song is written. Music entails words of another’s mind and their personal experiences. Many philosophers have said that music is pure; the emotional expression of a song can have an impact on the way someone is feeling. Music is my personal way of escaping, not only by listing to the lyrics, by writing, by singing, by playing, I cannot imagine what life would be if music was nonexistent.

Music is a hands-on and emotional rollercoaster of opportunities to express moments in our lives that need to be felt. We drive about in our cars and we hear tunes of the season, played away on our radios. We have CDs and cassette tapes filled with memorabilia, back when the music was "good," as the parents may recall. Music is never-ending, and that is what I believe is the most valuable factor of it all. It doesn't matter if you can sing an Italian opera, hum in the shower, or attempt to play the recorder without sounding like a fool. What matters is that music continuously aids those in society, no matter how small the impact, or optimal stress release. (And to be blatant, I haven't met a soul who dislikes a melody of some kind or another.)

As a child I was very active. Participating in gymnastics, dance, soccer, and volleyball. This was a very enjoyable time in my life. School was not very difficult considering I was only in grade school. My greatest passion was dance. At this point in my life I had been dancing for six years. Dancing was something I took pride in. Getting the opportunity to perform in front of hundreds of people excited me.

Music is a very important thing in my life not only is it my escape from my problems, but music is there for me when no one else is. Different genres of music have touched my heart and affected my life, from Rap to Alternative music. Though it wasn’t until my 7th grade year of school when, I realized the power that music could have on a person.

My life has always been boring. It’s always been the same things again and again, but without my music, family, friends, and my daydreaming, I would never have a chance to at least try overcome my problems such as social anxiety. Without those things I probably wouldn’t be able to do things like die my hair wacky colors.

From day to day, I live trying to figure out my purpose of being in this world. No child is born a mistake irrespective of the circumstances. I was born with a talent, although, yet to be discovered. A talent is a symbol of who a person really is. When I was younger, my dad put me through music school hoping that I would learn to play the piano because he wished he did when he was my age. I was not a big fan of playing the piano so I struggled most of the time. My fingers were so stiff and my instructor would request that I moisturize and massage them to make them more flexible. However, the underlying issue was my lack of interest and not my un-cooperating fingers.

I feel like i'm out of my mind. My world keeps spinning off course into darkness, problems, losses and feeling alone in my world. I feel myself drowning. Who can relate? I just don’t wanna be here anymore, i just wanna kill myself. I’ve been praying for someone to love me to take me into their home to accept me who i am. I want to find a reason to live to till the end. I want to find a lover to be happy for once in life. I don’t want anyone to be disappointed at me for being who I am and what I prefer in life. I feel myself moving in this world, traveling to find someone searching each corner, inch per inch, trying my best in life.

There are thousands of songs, and the artists and songwriters who wrote them. Each song has their own meaning, which the listener can identify by, can relate to. The listener can listen to the beat, the lyrics, anything about the song, and connect with it. Music’s unlike anything else. Music can mend a broken soul, send a message, or a way to identify with, unlike anything else. Hundreds of songs resonate with me, that I can identify with. Yet others aren’t going to resonate or identify with the same songs that I do, that is what makes music, music. Something that can have so abounding different affects people, yet can accomplish what other methods cannot. Methods such as medication or therapy, that can help with conditions such as depression, or losing a loved one. Creating music can not only help the listener cope with stressors in their life, but the artists as well. Nothings like music.

The first thing that comes to mind would be my love for music. Ever since I was really young, music has been in my life. Whenever I’m down, angry, frustrated, stressed, etc… I would listen to the lyrics and it would calm me down to the point i’m happy. As I got older, I started to really listen to the lyrics. Every song i came across I would try to analyze and of why I think the songs mean. Is it about love? Depression? Maybe it’s about happiness. This gave me things to think about. I’ve recently started watching drum covers on youtube and this made me realize how much I want to learn to play one, but I don't really know where I could go to learn to play one.

I am a musician. My journey through the weeds of musical establishment and excellence was filled with success and failures galore; how you describe me is up to you.

As a young child, my mother I didn’t have time to read to my brother and me. She was a single mother that had to work long hours to support us. Even though most of my early reading encounters were with my grandmother and babysitter my mother made sure we were reading. My grandmother would gather all the grandchildren together and read the bible to us. Before she would start she would say “This is will always be your foundation so remember these words.” Mrs. Shaw was the best babysitter any child could ask for. I appreciate her for introducing me to old school rhythm and blues music. She would read about all the old greats. Mrs. Shaw is the reason I have a passion for music. Now that I am a parent, it gives me great pleasure to read to my kids daily. We read anything that catches their attention. Their favorite books are books with interesting covers. My love for reading has changed over the years. I’m more interested in sports magazines, self-motivation books, autobiographies, and cooking books. New and upcoming authors seem to catch my eyes nowadays. A local author by the name of Dyphia Blount keeps me interested in reading. Her work is exceptional. Most of the books I’m interested in reading are available on Audiobooks, but I am not a big fan of them. I have a difficult time staying focused while listening to Audiobooks.

Music is one of the few things that I could not live without. It is something that I can turn to every day no matter what the situation is. If I’m sad, there’s a song for that. If I want to dance, there’s a song for that. There is music for any moment at any place in the world and that is what makes it so beautiful. Music to me is extremely important because there is no other form of art that can connect with a person so deeply and actually have them feel some type of way. Another reason why the value of music is high to me is because there is so much you can learn about a person through their music tastes that you could not discover by yourself. While someone might seem like a quiet or mellow person, that same person might listen to death metal on their free time. Music opens this door to people and shows us a glimpse of who they really
