Music was my refuge. I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness. ~ Maya Angelou
It's weird. Whatever I seem to be feeling a song tends to comes through the speakers that talks directly to my feelings. I love when I am in a mood, I know exactly which type of music and which playlist I want to listen to. Music speaks the words I cannot. It expresses what I am really feeling when I am afraid to share it with others. I love how a single song can trigger a memory in my head just by listening to its melody and lyrics. Music speaks so much about a person. If you know what a person's favorite song is, you can really learn a lot about them. It's even interesting to find out a little about yourself by looking at what types of songs you listen to. Music can take you out of a funk that you may be in and make yourself realize that you can get through anything. I like songs that have meaning behind them. I like to know that there was an intention about writing a song and that it is written about a certain event in the artist's life. This helps me identify with them and lets me know that I am not the only one going through a certain event. I know that just like them, I will overcome anything as well.
