What is life without music? In my opinion, a life without music will be a life without sound and color. You might be wondering what is the connection between music and color... Well, ever heard that music makes things colorful? I mean, the sound effect used in movies, the theme songs all gives an extra layer and pizzazz to the movie.
There are some movie scenes that get one tense, there are other scenes that get one emotional and teary. The difference between these scenes are the kind of songs played. It could be instrumental or just a song but it does it's job perfectly bringing life to the acting and stirring up emotions of the viewers.
Have you ever been in an event without music? It's usually boring as hell for me. While I do understand that not all events will be characterized by music, I do prefer those events that have musical interlude in between. Maybe during lunch break or a stretch break.
In such periods, there's this sort of relaxed feeling freeing one from all the build up tension one might have accumulated during the program. To me, music is a mental booster. Like we have food and drinks to revitalize our body, so we have songs and other melodious tones to boost our mental health.
Some religious sects even use music to treat some mental illnesses. I remember one time my friend was looking for one of Mozart's songs to use in helping his son combat his seizures. I think that was the first time I'm hearing that music could be used to combat some forms of mental illnesses. Initially, I had thought that music was just for one's relaxation.
There are times where I'd feel really sad and downcasted, at that point music becomes my go to therapy. I just listen to some of my old songs, cry if the urge arises and I find my heart being free from whatever it was that's troubling me. Or is it when I go to the mall to do some shopping? Those mall songs sure make shopping a memorable experience. Other times without music, the whole shopping experience just feels kind of off to me.
How about video games? Ever tried playing video games without the theme songs? Maybe turn off the sounds and see how boring the game turns out? Yeah that's it! Life without music will be boring.

Music is very important! The soundtrack of our lives. It's like painting time.
I just pictured this in my mind's eye, painting to a fast track instrument... It's really soothing 🙂. Music is indeed life, don't think I have ever met anyone who hates it.
