Did you know there is a difference between listening and really listening?
The other day I had an awakening. I was listening to a song, while I was doing some things in my room. I always like listening to music when I go about my day because it makes me feel connected. Over the course of my near 20 years of life, I have become almost dependent on it. Music fuels my soul.
While I was listening to this song, something caught my attention. I don't know if it was the music itself or I had a moment of thinking of nothing and I stopped. Either way, I began to really listen to it.
I sat back against my bed and closed my eyes. I thought of nothing but the music. By doing this, I had reached another level of awareness. I could feel the music inside me, filling my soul. I felt like I was flying.
The last time I felt like this was in high school. This song had moved me and as it continued to swell and build, so did my soul. I know this sounds cheesy but this was a whole new experience.
The words this artist was saying kept repeating and the music swelled with his voice. Finally at the climax of the song, he said three words that took my breath away.
His song brought so much emotion into my life. This six minute work of art, gave me hope.
This was a beautiful awakening to what life is really for and what it could be. It reminded me of what I why I was here on this earth. It refueled my purpose.
Life can be beautiful, all you need to do is listen.
