"The Power of Music"

Music is enormously powerful in our lives.
Release of emotions, being for me at least,
One of the primary and most important aspects of
Having music in my life.
When I’m upset, I can release it;
If I play “the Moonlight Sonata” when I’m upset,
I usually will
Cry before I finish, and
Then I feel better.
I can be sort of Lethargic;
Then I can play or listen to certain songs and
Be energized.
You don’t have to be a musician for
This effect to be experienced,
But for me,
I truly do not know how I would have made it this far
In my life had I not had the ability to sit and
Play music,
To express myself and to bring
The same joy and release to others as I
Play and sing.
What a Blessing it is!
But as for me, it is a blessing
In the most
Extreme way.
