Ever been captivated by a passionate emotion, whether it be rage, depression, or hilarity? I've found that music can either eliminate these emotions if you want them eliminated, or can enhance them when the emotions are good. Music has a way of relaxing one's emotions like no other. For instance, the ability to fall asleep--I've been listening to music while I fall asleep for the majority of my life, and I rarely have trouble sleeping. Whenever I'm in a sour mood, music is what I turn to for comfort. For example, the other day I was in a less than peachy mood, so proceeded to put in my headphones and become enveloped in some loud bass from a Kanye song. Dubstep also works--when you really let everything else go and flow into the music, it's great. It's almost like a drug, but without the side effects (unless you listen to music too loud, which is a bad idea--although occasionally it is really nice). Music can inspire emotion as well, whether it be a drive to do something from listening to Eye of the Tiger or even crying (yes, I will admit music has made me cry before) from a ballad or beautifully crafted song. Music has the potential to make your day so much better. I wish that everyone knew that and took advantage of the knowledge.
This post is good you missed 5 points though.
