In times like these there’s only one unifying entity out there. And you know what it is. It’s the one tool we all have to have to battle despair, depression, anxiety. . . or feeling like everything is lost. What is it? Well of course. . . It’s music!
The majority of us can’t do a damn thing about what’s happening right now, about one week after the election. But you canlisten to music that makes you feel better. Not somebody else’s music. . . YOUR music. Your playlist.
Music that you have a relationship with. Music that reminds you of good times. Music that takes you back to certain events from the past that feel good. Music is an excellent way to tune out all the shouting and the noise. As a creator and producer of music, this is something I have to remind myself of constantly. Because I hear music in a different way than most people it’s tough for me to enjoy it this way. . . But I’m gonna try!
So unplug from the noise and put on some good tunes! Maybe something from the mid 80s, or something from the early 2000s. You’ll know it when you hear it. So take a deep breath. And hit play on the tunes.
