Good Music Is Food For The Soul

Living in a world where painful events befall upon all of us, and where darkness may consume us if we allow it to control our lives, let us talk about and focus on one important element that can help us live and survive through the dark times and resist the evil that tries to pierce our fragile hearts and blind our eyes with deceptive illusions.

Let us go beyond the physical, tangible, and consumable matters of this world into the realm of musicians and let us dive ourselves into the enchanting world of music.

Have you ever thought that good music, which can be made available everywhere we go, can give us great satisfaction in our lives?

Good music can soften our hearts in conjunction with altering our perception of reality by taking our minds to places we have never been before and where we long to be if we only allow ourselves to be vulnerable to it, to go along with its rhythmic, continuous flow and consume it with passion.

Foods and drinks nourish and give energy to our physical bodies while good music, on the other hand, nourishes our immaterial souls and draws out our innermost passions and desires when we are synchronized with its good melodies and inspiring lyrics.

Listening to songs and music has already become a part of our everyday living.

We can hear the beauty of their melodies everywhere we go when we hear them playing, motivate us through the inspiration their messages bring, and feel their power to alter our negative emotions.

While listening to their melodies, the messages they bring can also make our day brighter.

They may uplift our spirits when we are feeling down.

They may burst us into laughter when we feel sad.

They may bring us hope in life when we are grieving.

A song or music is a truly powerful tool that we can use in times of sufferings and troubles.

Beware of certain songs for they can also be used as tools of destruction.

Some bad songs can be deadly for a lot of people because they can alter people's emotions in a negative way if the stories they tell bring people feeling down.

A lot of good songs and instrumentals really amaze my very being, to the point of me living inside the song or instrumental music itself while listening to them and allowing myself to be taken to magical and heavenly places where the melodies and messages of these music blow my thoughts away.

Whew, those are intense feelings I experience while I listen to these kinds of songs.

Listening to music depending on our mood is one technique to maximize its' good effects on us and to spark our creativity to develop our own world in our minds and immerse ourselves in it at the time when we are listening to the music.

When we are feeling happy at the moment, let us listen to exciting and upbeat songs where we can dance or nod our heads along with the music while listening to it.

When we are feeling inspired, let us listen to inspiring songs and show love and devotion to God/Jesus and do something good for other people at the same time.

When you are feeling loved by your special someone, listen to romantic songs and imagine yourself as one of the characters in that song and your partner is singing to you the song you are listening to.

There are two ways for us to handle listening to music if we are in a sad situation.

First, listening to jolly songs that can counter our negative emotions is a good way for us to stay happy and positive and forget our current situation.

Second, listening to sad songs that we can relate to while we are sad is good as well and is a time for us to shed tears and release all the negativity we are feeling inside us.

If we are listening to music and we encounter something in the music that is off our current situation and emotion, or the music has brought us down in one way or another, the "next song" button is always and only one click away. ;)
