Bruno Mars

So this aptly named blog post is probably because I've been listening to a lot of Bruno Mars recently and his songs are so on point about things going on in my life, at least some things.. not ALL of his songs. But more so than his songs alone, I think I just wanted to write about the power of music and how influential it can be. Music can change the mood of anything instantly with a few notes or chords played in a certain rhythm or tone. I think music really does have the power to mend broken hearts, to cure sadness, pain, suffering... sometimes I think music really is inspired of God. In a way he gives us the ability to create such beautiful sound for us to be able to separate ourselves from physical and bring us into the emotional realm of feeling. I'm not saying all music is like this, because there is a lot of pop noise going on in the world that isn't bad but I don't know. Sometimes music isn't just the sound, but the lyrics or emotions. I don't really know how to explain what I feel about it but I just feel that music really does play a powerful role in our lives even if we aren't fans of music it really does change who we are. Why else are there so many studies on children and infants on music? I think those scientists are on to something because music early in life can change one's life. Ok so my mind is off right now... Sort of a mix of thoughts, emotions, feelings and all sorts of mish-mash going on right now in my brain... like someone took a rainbow blender and turned it on awesome. Haha... it's like a happy rainbow tornado. Weird analogy. Since my thoughts are all blended into rainbow awesomeness, I guess I'm done this post. Peace
