Music

There isn't enough words to describe it. It's such an important part of our society, that if I don't hear one song by one of my favorite artists everyday I go a little crazy.

It's the universal language that we all understand. It's created friendships in the most unlikely ways, I've seen it. It's created friendships from people living in different countries, speak different languages, but they've United over the love of their favorite artist or song.

Music is very powerful and influential That's another thing I've come to see. Rachel Platen's 'Fight Song' has been come an anthem worldwide for those suffering with cancer, leukemia and depression. I specifically remember one time watching Rachel on a daily talk show. A girl a lot younger than I am told Rachel how much the song meant to her and how it kept her well fighting. The professional singer got very emotional while she was explaining and though she didn't break down in tears you could tell that she was very close to doing so.

The dreams music creates are crazy. For me personally, if I happen to be listening to a 5sos song, I imagine how fun it would be on stage. I'd have chills no doubt from the thousands of people watching but hearing them scream, it be totally worth it.

The power of playing music is another incredible feeling. The light strokes of your fingers on guitar strings creating a soft lullaby or the hard and fast ones as you rock out.

The completion of a song is one of the incredible feelings out there. When you finish, it's your song. Your pain or happiness, your words, emotions all laid out on pieces of paper until ready to perform or record.

Do me a favor, listen to music as loud as you can. Who cares if your parents complain of how loud it is or how your teachers say you'll need hearing aids by the time your their age. Discover a new artist. Maybe they'll invoke emotions or feelings you've never felt before.

Trust me, you'll thank me later.
