I remember when I was young (about five years old) I often sat beside a huge radio in my home and I listened to the songs and melodies of the time. I was fascinated by the difference of music and I distinctly remember how it influenced emotionally the moment I was listening.
As I grew older I became an avid music fan, without a specific genre. That does not mean that I don't enjoy some genres over others, or that I don't prefer some musicians over others.
So, for the last few weeks I often wondered, what happens to the soul when we hear a beautiful song or melody?
Is there more to music that touches us then we can even imagine? How is it that some music transposes 'light' into our emotions . . . and other music transposes 'darkness'?
Is there a musical pattern (of some sort) that we in are tune' with?
Is there a longing within us that needs to be fed?
. . . let me hear from you and share your experiences & thoughts.

I was just thinking about this the other day. My roommate and I have surround sound in our room...so it sounds like a real show sometimes...and the other day I just laid next to a speaker for about an hour just listening to the guitar..it was so relaxing and I felt so happy & at peace. I don't know why it is..but I'm thankful for the gift of music that we get to enjoy as we please...
