Music Is Life, Pt. 1

Music. We hear it everywhere we go. Sometimes we like it, and sometimes we don't, but the undeniable fact is that it's everywhere.

Everywhere.

To some, it's a drug of choice. New music, new sounds, new beats, classics that haven't been heard before or haven't been heard in a long time. Each one creates it's own high to the listener.

Music is one of those things that defines the human experience. We use it for everything. We use it to motivate ourselves. We use it to help lift us up when we are down. We use it to express ourselves when words just aren't enough. It's hard to think of life without music.

Not everyone will like the same kind of music either, and that's what makes it great. I looked at my music library this week, almost 19,000 songs! But the crazy part isn't that if i pushed play at the first song, I wouldn't hear the same track for almost 2 months, it's that I want more.

If you enjoy music, you know it's addictive. You hear a song, and you might not like the rest of the album, but then you might like it and go out and buy all the other records by the same group or artist. I know I've done it, and maybe it's just me.

All I really know is that when either I find new music or someone points out some new stuff to me, there's no greater feeling than just chillin' out and just listening to the music, alone or with friends. Doesn't Matter. In the end, it's all about the music.


Time to fly. More to come on this later...
