Music
Music, what would we do without it? Tara Cronica has a category Tara’s Talent. I have been making it a part of my social calendar to go and check out some local bands.
I love spending time listening to music. I can’t imagine my life without it. I envy the creative souls who make it. In my twenties I hung out with friends who loved to get together and jam. I could sit and listen to them for hours.
Music inspires me to write, meditate and gives me the energy to run. Music sets the mood for everything, imagine a movie without a score. One of my favorite movies about music is ‘August Rush’.
My favorite instrument is acoustic guitar. I think music can enriches your life in so many ways. Having had two children, I noticed how both responded to music at such an early age. It makes one wonder how the vibrational energy of the music can have such an emotional impact on us.
Going to concerts is an experience for sure, but I like the more intimate show myself. Late last year Jacquie and I went to see Jessica Beach when she was promoting ‘For Your Protection‘. Loved her! And yes, bought the CD.
More recently I saw a band called DNA 6 who are funk and rap mixed, they too were worth the night out for. Swank is next on my list of bands to see!
Which came first the emotion or the song?
