Music Is My Religion

Man, I love music. Rock and metal are by far my favorites but I just love music in general. I also love dancing and music with great beats. To me, it's like a religion. I push play and I'm instantly swept away from whatever ails me, even if it is just for a few minutes.

I've found that music is always there, from the good to the bad, to help get you through. The tragedies that affect us all are lessened, to some point, by music. When my grandmother died a few years ago, I remember laying in bed and not being able to sleep. The song "Thinking About Forever" by P.O.D. came on and I immediately went into reflection. Usually I don't do this, but this was amazing. It made me instantly think about all the good times we had together that could never be taken away.

This moment gave me the sense of love and gratitude from my grandmother and I feel proud to have known her. I believe only music has the ability to do this.

Anyway, I know that for me, music makes me a better person. I'm happy and proud to be able to share that with all you listeners out there!
