The Sweetest Sounds

Isn't it amazing the power of music? No matter the genre you are listening to, music has the awesome power of changing your mood and disposition instantly according to what kind of music you are listening to. What's even more amazing is the affect it has on your memory. You listen to a certain song and instantly, it takes you back to a certain person or place in time that you might have otherwise forgotten had you not listened to the song. Not only do you recall memories, but it also moves you to feel all sorts of emotions. I love just laying on the couch at night in the dark listening to some of my favorite artists--especially ones that remind me of Stephen since I can't fall asleep while he's gone.

I also love listening to music from growing up taking me back to the good old days in the 90's on the farm hanging out upstairs in my bedroom with Becky. I thought it was so cool when I got my first set of blank tapes to record my favorite songs off the radio; that way I could listen to my own music on my walkman whenever I went outside to do chores or play. Anywho, I'm just grateful for my ears and the ability to hear and listen.
