The silence of the soul// imagining a world without music

One good thing about music, when good music hits you, you feel no pain

~Bob Marley


You know, even before this prompt, I do wonder what the world will be without good musics and for every of those my moments of deep thoughts, all I would always conclude was that the world will be without form and void; just an empty space with two to three legged creatures walking around aimlessly in empty space of silence.

Good music is the food of the soul. Do you really know what we risk by not having it? Damn! I don't think we are either ready nor can survive with such a trauma.
Music is not just entertainment, I hope you know? To me, music transcends more than just entertainment, music is a reflection of our culture, our emotional state and an avenue of expressing our thoughts.
No wonder they have got different genres of musics (blues, hip-hops highlife classicals e. t.c) with all of them signifying different interplay of emotions and creating the perfect mood for us.

Have you considered of the emotional void lack of good music will create? Do you think it is what you will like to witness because I'm sure don't want to witness that, lol.

Our weddings, traditional marriages, graduations and other celebrations will definitely feel empty without music accompanying every stage of them because what else adds spice to these celebrations if not musics?

As always, when people just vibe to a particular song, it's enough for you to identify where the person hails from because they also touch our culture and historical origins.
This is because every community is unique in delivering their beautiful renditions that preserve its history. This has also been very instrumental in preserving most of our cultures through most of the ancestral songs where these ancient histories, stories and values were enshrined.

When life becomes overwhelming and you are lost in thoughts about the thousand disturbances running in your head, what do you do?
Because what I personally do is take a walk with my headset listening to the playlists I already selected and before you know it, I've gotten the strength to push on.. music kinda boosts our mental health and improves our mood.

On another note, music has been a source of employment to many households, we are complaining about the lack of jobs in my country, Nigeria for instance,now imagine if there were no musics, it literally means that the thousands making their living via there will still be in contention of where they can work, thereby further increasing the unemployment burden of the country.

The greatest asset we have in music is that it's a universal thing, hence, bridging the gap between people of different backgrounds. This also helps in fostering peace amongst the different countries on earth, what a great asset we have got!

We could never survive it here; earth without those melodies.; A world without music isn't just unimaginable, it's "unsurvivable"

Honestly I can't imagine the world without music cause i don't know what I would be doing in those dark moments like they have the ability to make one forgets their sorrows that's why we say songs itself is a spirit.

Definitely... Musics are spirits because they go beyond the physical ears .... They drop impact on the minds too
