The Thoughts of We

When we talk about the reasons that make people love music and so much more, it is important to understand that we are often not given an exact reason but rather just a general idea of what it is all about. However, what we do know is that music, specifically in the form of improvised dance, can be a form of escape from the realities of daily life into a world of fantasy for some. If you have ever sat yourself down at a piano and created a composition using only your fingers, then you too may have had similar feelings of loneliness, frustration, or even depression as well as a desire to escape into a place of fantasy. Music can be a means of escape from those things in life that can often times wear us down and rob us of our peace of mind.

Music can also be a celebration of human accomplishment and human connection. Just as each note on a piano represents a unique human voice and the emotions it brings forth, so too does each band member on a rock or rap beat represent something different and special to the song’s creator. As humans, it has been said that music is often a way of expression and a way of identifying with other human being with feelings. This has become very true in today’s society where one can listen to music from a variety of artists and genres to better understand what another person is feeling at any given moment in time.

There is another aspect to the human need to create that often gets lost when we speak of art and music. That aspect is that music and the sound it makes can actually bring about healing within those who listen to it. In some cases, this is due to the fact that music can often send a human soul into a state of ecstasy or a state of euphoria. For instance, if you listen to classical music, it can actually transport you to another world where the worries and troubles of the day have long since passed by.
