Demystifying Music For A More Positive You
Believe it or not, everybody is a sucker for music. Music, or as boiled from its original meaning, ‘the art of Muses’. Music plays too important a role in our lives.
The first music everybody hears in their life is their mother’s lullaby.
That is the first musical experience you get to experience in your life and it sure does work like MAGIC!
Life sure is like music with it HIGH, happy notes and LOW, sad notes. You have both great and worst moments every day. Your day is like a soundtrack and it is your decision how should the song overall feel like. Sad or Happy? It is your CHOICE!
Because just like in music, both good and bad moments keep on repeating, showing us the roller coaster ride that life is.
Childhood is mostly the happy notes. Then, comes adolescence which is a rambunctious mix of both happy and sad notes. Adulthood follows the same suit but the rambunctiousness settles down. Old age is mostly like a lullaby filled with low, happy notes, in which you keep on reminiscing your life’s symphony.
What is Music?
What can you consider as Music?
A child bawling at the top of his voice is not music.
Our brain perceives anything as music that contains a pattern.
Music can be as simple as you banging the table in a set pattern or as complex as Mozart’s Symphonies.
For many of you, the music above will be the answer the question to where the hell I have listened to this? And I am happy to tell every single place you can think of. From children’s toys to tens of movies, most notably Patch Adams. You can finally name the most commonplace but exceptionally beautiful music.
Next is the infamous Nokia Tune. Surprisingly, it is from a classical piece of music.
Listen and decide for yourself.
Listen closely at the 12th, that’s when you will realize it.
A trickle of ever-so-sombre notes enters your mind in this ever-so-lonely-yet-cacophonous world. That is the feeling music gives me.
Music seems to remind us of the reasons, why we have emotions? It tells us why to love, bear the pain, be selfless. Every note comes with a lesson. It can whisk you away to most beautiful places in the world or show you the pain behind the dark abyss of eyes. Music is a pure expression of emotion. It is one of the reasons I find humanity still worth fighting for.
Here are some of my favourite pieces hope you like them:
A Great Piece on Piano
And this is one song that makes your morning every day. Its the first on my playlist. You gotta have high hopes for a busy day, right?
Music can become a storm of red roses for you or a desolate lake with no life at all.
Music can become the calm morning breeze or the raging storm.
Music can become love or sorrow.
Music can become the sun, raging with fire inside or the moon, filled with everlasting soothe.
Music can become your friend reminding you of your best moments or your greatest enemy reminding you of the moments you wish you forget.
Music is omnipotent like God, and thus, so, aptly called the art of Gods.
