music...what is the connection?

What do you do when you have nothing to do..maybe listen to your favorite music?..what do you do when you are happy?..maybe sing your favorite song or dance on your favorite tune..no matter what kind of person you are..you can always relate to music..irrespective of culture, age or species..why even my dog liked listening to music (he didn't like hard rock though..he he.).Lot of times its the mood of the song which can change your mood from happy to sad or from nostalgic to romantic.. isn't it funny how you start walking fast on the road while listening to a fast track on the radio or when you slow down your pace try to move with the steadiness of a slow song. I don't know about everyone else but i have a song for every experience i had had in my life..maybe i had heard that song a lot in that period and related to it or something else. Every friend i have reminds me of a song...whenever i hear that song i think of that particular person...maybe its a common favorite or a reason of a joke..i never seem to forget them. Music sometimes acts like a time machine, Surprised..it brings back memories which you thought you forgot about..ever seen your grandmother smile while she is listening to one of the oldies...u never know what she is thinking of?..maybe a childhood crush or a favorite teaser. A dancer dances to the different rhythms matching it with the rhythm of his heart beat..Doctors recommend laying a crying baby on its mother's chest. Why? So the baby can hear the familiar, restful and secure sounds that are such music to its ears...hmm..all i know is that its the only reason i am able to submerge my negativity and still remember and appreciate the good things in life...
