how has music made a remarkable effect in your life?

we all know that we can consider music as a universal language. we may not speak the same language but through music we can express our deepest and innermost feelings. through music we can convey a message of happiness, sadness, excitement, mourning, loss and many other things. a lot of us consider music as part of our lives too. like me for example, music is one thing that helps me cope with being away from my family. but the greatest contribution that music has done for me is that it made me and my father bridge the gap between us, reconnect with our ties and make a bond as father a daughter.

music plays a major part in my everyday life such as learning my multiplication tables in 3rd grade to even remembering names in everyday life. and the songs that i prefer to listen to always think of the "glory days" bruce springsteen. im sure that everyone has a favorite song and it makes them think of something that would deffinatly put a smile on thier face or a tear in thier eye,

i listen to music depending on my mood and also to make me relax. some songs help me have a good reflection of myself and my life in general. some also allow me to reminisce my past and the associated emotions,.

that's so great.. music can also help us reflect with our lives too! i agree with you about that..and sometimes there'd be songs that become like our theme songs depending on what we are experiencing

Yes, I agree with you. I like listening to music of different countries and cultures too. It is a universal language. One can always sense that there is the deep culture behind any music. My favorite music is classical music, and I listen to them every evening after coming back home from work. That is my way of relaxation and getting relieved of the stresses of the day.
