The Flight of the Bumblebee...

For those of you who know me, it was the career path that was laid out in front of me, that I chose not to take. But still, I find comfort in the soft melodies and beautiful lyrics.

My mind has been racing. I sat down to study and I felt my heart fluttering to The Flight of the Bumblebee. I can't concentrate on any one thing, let alone histology. So I opened up my playlist and began searching for a song.... and there it was. I hit play and let the lyrics filter through my mind. It was instantly clear to me as to why I was preoccupied and couldn't think. I let the music continue to play, and allowed the song to say out loud what I have been thinking all along.....

For an hour now, I have quietly echoed the lyrics in my mind.... I love music. Music is a free ticket around the world. It takes you to new depths, engages raw emotion and can often trigger things that you had forgotten. (Or maybe wish you'd forgotten) And for that, I love it. Listening to music is how I soul-search. It is how I escape from reality, even if for only a few minutes....
