i silently sit, listening to each beat of the music
i close my eyes and allow my soul to soak in each note
i absorb the sounds and rhythms
they bring harmony to my soul
and heal me from within

Wendi, this was so incredibly powerful! I find that listening to music and letting it reach your soul is the best way to make it through difficult times. If I didn’t have music in my ears at work, I think I would go a little crazy. Music has a way of relaxing the mind and easing pains, fears and stress. Great post sweetie!
