This is a very short and sweet post to remind you all of how powerful music can be. In stressful times I find that music keeps me grounded and calms me. Like when you’re teetering on that breaking point and then – BAM – the right song comes on and for that moment all is right in the world. It’s the connection to the words, the beats, the emotions. The music helps to pull those feelings to the surface, helping us recognize that they’re there, and allowing us to feel them. Or help us to forget them for a time. Whether it’s anger, sadness, happiness or a combination of those, or something totally different, there is always music to match the feeling. 


In tough times…turn up the volume.
