Music Therapy

Eversince I could remember, I have been listening to music, from the old walkman, to a discman and now an mp3 player.  I've had a casette player and now a CD player.  The way we listen to music has evolved, the way that music has evolved as well.  Now there are different genre of music, but I still consider mellow songs and love songs as my favorites.

Listening to music is therapy for me.  It helps me when I'm stressed out.  There was a time when I was at my lowest and I turned to Christian music and it really helped me feel whole again.

Music brings back memories of things that happened in the past.  A song that my friends and I used to dance to, or the background music playing during my first date with my husband.

Music is an expression of feelings.  For me, music speaks what is in a persons heart and mind.  And as the  Abba song goes

So I say, Thank you for the music,
The songs I'm singing,
Thanks for all the Joy they're bringing
Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance what are we?
So I say Thank you for the music
For giving it to me...
