What is the one activity that every person does? Whether it be in a car, when you're on a walk, or even in the shower. It's music. Now this word can be thought about in many different ways whether it's playing an instrument, writing a song, listening to the radio...regardless it is something that has an effect on every single person. That feeling that you get when you know a song by heart and it's upbeat and has such an influence in your life is something that you want to feel more. To experience more. To understand more.

Music is one of the many distractions or anxiety-relieving activities that is positive. That can help with coping, with a distraction, being something that you enjoy to do.

It is said that.....

No matter how bad of a day you are having, someone you know is having, music can heal your soul. It can explain everything you're feeling just by a beat or a certain lyric or the song itself. Whether you're extremely happy or sad, each song has a different meaning and each person interprets it differently. That's the beauty of music. You choose how you perceive it.

When you hear that perfect song, the one that describes how you're feeling in that moment in time, it truly is breathtaking. It describes your feelings, your insecurities, your personality. It is you. When I look at a song, I look at the lyrics, and I analyze them. I see what they can mean to someone else, to me. To someone who needs to feel how amazing it is to lose yourself in a song.

Hans Christian Andersen stated, "Where words fail, music speaks."

It speaks.

Not only does music allow you to find yourself, it helps you. It helps your brain, it teaches you and it improves your life.

It is healthy for you, it affects your entire life. It also can change your mood. If you listen to happier songs that are uplifting they impact your day. If you sit around and listen to depressing songs then that's how you will feel. It has the power to affect your mood and your life. Choose the right way.

Choose to live your life in happiness, choose to feel the music, choose to live. Using music is just one way, but it can go along ways in helping who someone needs it. When I was going through a rough patch, my friend sent me a song and it changed how I was feeling. It is that powerful. Be the person who sends the most uplifting and soulful songs to others. To make them feel better. To make a difference.

Isn't that the goal? To make a difference in someone else's life in a good way. Don't think about it, just do it. Use music to do it.
