Music in many ways can save hundreds of souls. The lyrics, the rhythm, the tune—we would be nowhere without music. To some, it is more than the mere entertainment or background noise many use while studying or cooking. Music can mean the world and beyond to some. It can heal and nurture. Sometimes the passion isn't specifically centered on listening, but making music as well. Here are 11 reasons why music is mankind's most stunning invention.
1. Music is a universal language. Everyone understands rhythm, dance, beat and tune, and everyone can join along in singing and dancing. It can bring together those of different cultures, races, religions, and even people who are disabled. Music can unite in ways nothing else in the world can.
2. There is a song out there meant for you. No matter how picky you are with your sounds, there is something in this world, that someone has created that can make you feel something.
3. Music is art, just like dance. For anyone that does not believe it is, cannot understand the concept of rhythm and tune.
4. Music is cultural. Music can showcase hundreds of different cultures, from time periods we have only witnessed on paper.
5. There is a song for every moment you have experienced, and for every thing you have witnessed with your eyes. There is a song for that one time you clumsily walked up the steps of a bar because you were too tipsy, or a song for that time you felt your heart break. There is a song for when you were laughing with your loved ones around you, and for that one time you cried at the metro when you felt like your world was ending. There is a song for the emotions you felt for when you saw the Eiffel Tower sparkle for the first time at midnight.
6. Music can bring back hundreds of memories. If I ever feel nostalgic for a certain period in my life, I listen to the songs I loved back then and look at old pictures. Music can take me years back.
7. Music can unite crowds, heal and nurture. Music can help your development as a kinder human being.
8. Some of my most favorite memories are connected to music. When I'm driving with my friends, singing at our favorite songs. When I'm at concerts, dancing all my problems away. Music brings experiences that make for wonderful memories.
9. Music can heal a broken heart in ways you never thought possible.
10. Music is movement, and it gives you ample opportunities to become active and healthy by dancing, walking, or running.
11. We would be nowhere without music. Every kind of music is beautiful in its own special way. There is a sound out there for you, go find it if you have not.
