My Music Journey

Billy Joel once said, “I think music in itself is healing. It 's an explosive expression of humanity. It 's something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we 're from, everyone loves music.” In many ways this quote is very accurate both socially and scientifically. Music is a vital part of almost every culture and serves many purposes culturally as a means of self expression and communication within a culture and the world at large. While music does serve several external purposes, perhaps its most important and fascinating functions happen within the brain when its making or listening to music. Over the years there have been countless studies on music 's effect on the human brain and body and many have concluded that music positively affects the brain by doing things like relieving stress and improving cognitive function, and the body as well, by relieving pain and muscular and cardio vascular tension. Music is an important part of the human experience and affects our brain, bodies and emotions in both abstract and physical ways, making it vital to many facets our well being.

Throughout my life, no single thing has had a greater impact than music. It has made me who I am today, and I cannot remember a time when music wasn’t a huge part of myself - my earliest memories all contain the music that my parents played. Beyond being a product purely for enjoyment, as it was for a long time in my earliest years, music has gone on to become a fundamental part of who I am, how I spend my time, and who I spend that time with. It motivates me to be better for numerous reasons. I credit my early involvement in music with most of the successes I have had to this date.

Bono once said, “Music can change the world because it can change people”. Music has changed me into the person I am today. I believe that music heals my life problems. I remember running around in the Blockbuster video store my parents owned, always drawn to the music section. Although my parents weren’t heavily influenced by music, I branched out and discovered a whole new world. I found myself getting my first MP3 player at age 7. Although The Jonas Brothers and High School Musical were less influential in my life, it did expose my mind to music.

Music plays a big role in my life. I listen to it everyday. Music helps me process what emotions I am feeling that day. Emotions such as anger, happiness, depression and anxiety. For example in 2011 my commanding officer for young marines died. Then three month later my grandfather passed away. Everything felt hopeless, I was depressed and

This is a huge component for me. Music allows me to express myself. When I want to get pumped up and have lots of energy during my workout I’ll turn on rock and roll music real loud to get that extra burst of energy. I like to listen to music when I am down on myself. When I want to forget about all the stress in life and just have a great time I turn to music. Music can put me in a way better mood after a terrible day or a long day at school or work. People like music to remind them of events , especially the happiest times in life. Music can take you back to a time in your life and reminds you that everything comes to an end. Music has showed me that there are stages in your life and I can’t dread on the past, I just keep going and living life to the

Music is that one friend that will always be there and will never judge us. It changes and has a huge

At the beginning, music has and always will be an important thing in my life. When I am on a road trip or am doing something that takes an extended period of time, I know I can turn on Spotify and drift into my own world. Also, if I ever feel perturbed or dejected, I can listen to my favorite album and feel great again. Third, music helps me prepare for activities such as football games or school. Lastly, music assists me whenever I’m working on something such as homework or a project for school.

Music is something in my life that has been very important to me. Music is something that people bond over day by day and interact with. Music is something that can be one on one with an individual person in every mood. “One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain” (Bob Marley). Twenty One Pilots has been, and will forever be, one of my favorite bands. This song has a very deep meaning and it makes me very emotional listening to it sometimes but it is truly beautiful. “I feel for you but when did you believe you were alone?” (Twenty One Pilots, Friend, Please). This quote came off of another song they wrote on this same album, this is talking about love and depression and through all the pain and misery you are not alone

Music is one of the most important and powerful thing in my life. Without it my life would be nothing but emptiness. I consider music as if it was my own therapist because heedfully auricular discerning it avails me de-stress, relax, and it can additionally avail me dispense my kept emotions. What it also does is it puts me in a positive (+) mood; positive mood equals positive thinking. If one who thinks that he can achieve one thing, will not be shackled by the troubles in the path of his own success. For this reason, I use the plus sign to represent the event of my day; to reach for

Music has impacted my life in many ways. Through music I have learned that you can do and have whatever you want as long as you put the work and effort to try. As a little kid, I have never been competitive, until I came in contact with the trumpet. When I join my middle school band I learned how to be the best at something and started to learned how to be competitive as I started moving up in high school and going to competitions. Wanting that made me put so much dedication to it. Countless of hours have been on practicing the same things over and over again, giving myself no limits on what to practice. Music basically has showed me how much effort you have to put in, so I can get closer and closer to achieve my goal. As a result, I joined

I have never met a person who stated they didn't enjoy music. Even the deaf can feel the beat and vibrations through hands and feet, if it's loud enough they might even feel it in their chest, acting as a secondary heart beating like a drum. It's fascinating, there's always some kind of connection to sound. Even when you wear a t-shirt showing an artist you like and a stranger will compliment you, or even start a conversation because you both have similar taste. It gives you something to talk about, it helps shy kids in the back of classrooms make friends, it makes connections, and can bring people together like moths to a flame. Music can make memories, it ties itself to a moment in time and replays that memory whenever it come on. A random reminder, whether it be a positive memory or negative one, it'll snap you back in time, giving you whiplash of emotion or

Emotions run deep within music. Music has the ability to change our moods within minutes, or even seconds. The simplest of arrangements can move us in ways that words cannot. You can see this in every period of time. Through happiness and through strife, we grow attached to the music that touches us the most. When I feel sorrowful, I listen to the music that helps repair the damage to my heart. When I feel joyous, I listen to the music that energizes my already energetic mood. No matter what I’m feeling, my emotions can be seen in the music I write and the music I listen to. Music has been and will always be a major part of life,

In summary, music is the bread of life that feeds my soul. It is the only language that I feel is universally recognized and ultimately understood. It takes me back to the past, whether it is good or bad, but it also brings me back to the present state. Most of all music heals me in so many ways like being calm, happy, and at peace. Music is indeed, truly spiritual.

When people say "music saved my life," they are saying they found themselves once to be weak and eventually found strength through music. You can find yourself alone in the life you live but when you listen to music you realize you'll never be alone. I believe music gives people a sense of hope that they don't have to feel like they're the only one's going through things. Music can express more than words and it gives people a constant when their world seems to be chaotic. It's something some people need in their life and to be who they are and go on day by day.

My Musical Journey, well my Journey to Music all had started when I was young. When I was in fifth grade I was having trouble with school, and doing things I was supposed to do. I was only 10 years old, life was still a new journey that I was experiencing and was excited to go through. A friend of mine named Jordan had been visiting in Coronado California, from Texas, and brought along some motor bikes with him. He was basically a professional at the sport, and had been doing it for years, while I had never done it before. Him and his Father had invited me to go out motor biking with them in Julian, California, on one of the days they were here. And of course I said yes I was so excited and was glad they chose me to go along with them that day.
