Music has the ability to encompass all the emotions of the human heart. For me, to sing and play the piano is to express those thoughts and emotions I can't always articulate in complete sentences. It's a home for me - a place of safety... Cervantes said, "he who sings scares away his woes." Here's another favorite:
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
~and the night shall be filled with music
and the cares that infest the day
shall fold their tents like the Arabs
and as silently steal away~
Here is a link to one of my favorite songs from the much beloved singer, IMOGEN HEAP: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nt4uKcdMCjc
