To be honest, music is my escape.
No matter how I am feeling, happy, sad, energetic or frustrated, I love to put music on to channel my inner thoughts. Listening to music is a great way for me to let my emotions pour out. Whether it be upbeat music that I can jump around and dance to, or slow ballads that make me sit in deep thought, I enjoy them all. My favorite – jumping and dancing around in my room while lip syncing in front of the mirror to a high-energy song. It’s great cardio too!
Lyrics are really what makes music so special to me. It’s amazing how much artists’ lyrics affect my life. Many times, listening to lyrics help me reflect on the past and plan my future. It takes a lot of courage for artists to pour their hearts and souls out into a song and I admire them for that. I am so thankful that I have been given the opportunity to listen to and learn from the words that these artists have written.
