Music


God sure knew that the gorgeous world he was gonna create would one day succumb to emotions, conflicts and grotesque wars that man would rage against man. So after ages of critical thinking, he came up with the scintillating idea of music that would gush through man's veins calming him and forcing him to relinquish everything and be seduced by the eternity that lies within. Little did he know that he had created the most amazing gift he could ever give to humans.
Of course music has evolved into multi-dimensional prospects ever since its origination. But being a musician myself, though a rookie, i can say that the one dazzling flame flows through all musicians over the world despite an unfathomable disparity in the languages they speak, the food they eat, the intellect they have or the prosperity they reflect. It can't be verbally expressed. But we know that there is something flabbergasting about it. The enormous pleasure we get listening to our favorite tune far exceeds the one derived from sex.
A Chinese philosopher has said "if the world learnt to appreciate music, all disharmony would end at once". The satisfaction, peace, harmony and the sweet melody that flows through music, be it in any form, finds best resonance with human mind which is symbolic of the fact that we as humans are designed to live with all these elements deeply embedded into our souls. Such is the influence of music in our lives that any tension, a defeat, a setback, a cold fight with a lovely friend, a nag or a bicker with mom immediately calls for some sweet music. All we do is plug the headphones and turn that heart touching piece of euphony on. It works like a drug that once injected into the bloodstream makes you wanna fly within seconds it hits you. Of course music doesn't kill unlike the drug.
So why does evil keep showing up despite the widespread presence of music throughout the world? Why do we fail god over and over again? May be because we have yet to learn a lot that music has to offer. We have to release ourselves to the heavenly wings of music and let it take us far far away from the materialism we are stuck in. We have to renounce the feeling of pride, victory, jealousy, cynicism and repugnance. It is only then that we can rejoice the limitless power and solace that music encompasses.

Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
