5 Reason's Why I Can't Go a Day Without Music

The battery died on my iPhone this morning, leaving me without my usual daily soundtrack to accompany me through the day.

I was kind of lost without it and it got me thinking about why it’s so important to me.

So, here are my top five reasons for needing to listen to music every day…..

1.Music inspires your imagination. Press play and it can take you anywhere you want to be. Close your eyes and you are in that moment. Sing along and you ARE that famous rockstar (don’t try to deny it-you know you’ve done it)

2.Music is universal. It crosses all barriers or race, religion and unites people. It brings people together- how many times have you sung along at a concert with that stranger next to you?

3.Music evokes emotions. It effects our emotions in a real and powerful way. It brings out feelings that are sometimes hard to express. Have you ever felt a little sad the put on some music and that has made the feeling more deeper and profound?

4.Music is always there when you need it. It’s your constant companion and it always knows the right thing to say.

5.Music is a simple pleasure. All you need are your ears and your imagination.

So, I just had to leave you with a link to a little part of a song that always touches my heart. He is also my all time favourite artist, I hope you enjoy…..

Welcome to my world!

I was inspired by a friend's fantastic blog to have a go at trying my own.

So... this is it- my very own blog, a place where I can talk about my life, hopes and dreams.

Somewhere I can explore some of the passions in my life- dance, poetry, photography and my baby daughter.

If anyone reads this, I hope they enjoy it as much as I have enjoyed reading others....
