Rue Royale, Day 91

I'm listening to one of my all time favorite bands right now. They're so peaceful. Their lyrics are beautiful and I enjoy every word. Art, man's self expression is so wonderful because it connects person to person on a deeper level than talking. With music, with painting, with film, even in writing, a man is able to express his soul and another man is able to feel understood, accepted, and approved because of that expression.

I'm wondering if music is a thing that someone can "have." You can desire to obtain and own CD's, records. You can wish to have music in a sense by idolizing a musician or by memorizing lyrics. But I believe the sound, the connection in the moment, the way your soul reacts to the music isn't something you can "have." (Good) Music in the moment that it's being appreciated is alive and free and as long as it's appreciated will forever bring forth new and extraordinary life.
