"Music is love in search of a word." -- Sidney Lanier

Music is what gets me through the day.  It is what consoles my spirit.  It is what expresses my joy.  It is what inspires me.  It is what laughs with me (or even at me).  It is what help me connect with others.

I love music.  I don't know how I would live my life without music (and books, but that's a given).  I was asked a question during a stupid ice breaker in college: if you had to, which sense would you not mind losing eyesight or hearing?  I would lose my eyesight in a second (already losing it, so whatever).  I would die losing my hearing.  I need music.  I need to hear the beautiful melodies, the discordant tones, the lyrics, the rhythm.

Is a life fully lived without music?  I would say no... it's a life wanting, missing an integral part.  Now I must go listen to some music.  The only problem: what to choose?  There's too many choices.  I think I'll just put it on random...
