Music

Music is the universal language. A word may convey thousands of meanings, but a single note can articulate the most vivid emotions: from joy, pleasure, and excitement, to grief, sorrow, and despair. It heals, it inspires, it provokes, and it motivates. A familiar song can arouse memories of a smell, a taste, a place, or an entire period of your life. To try to encapsulate what music really is into a single paragraph is to neglect everything meaningful about it. We all relate to music personally. And speaking personally, I regard music as a refuge. It is an escape to a place where I can realize my imagination and completely live in that world. To someone else, it may hold an entirely different meaning, but it holds meaning nonetheless.

Everybody is capable of appreciating music, and everybody is capable of creating their own, there is no such thing as “wrong” or “right” in the art of sound. There is no “wrong” or “right” in art as a whole.
