Why I run to music

Now a days we all try so hard to fit in. To belong. To be liked, that sometimes we lose our way and become something we aren’t. Along the way we lose people we love. We have emotions that are far to strong to being to even describe. Feeling something so strong that we can’t put it into words or even understand. That’s why I run to music when I’m feeling something I can’t explain. It make me feel safe, like I’m not the only one going through this. That I’m not alone. Music makes me feel at home. It’s crazy that a single song can take you to a place that feels so safe. There have been so many times were I felt like it was the end. Like I had no purpose, but before quitting I’d throw headphones in and escape the world for a little and that has saved me. There is something so incredible about the power of music. It tells a story but not just any story, your story. Like someone else has been in your shoes and that you aren’t nuts for feeling some type of way. When I had nobody else and felt my lowest I could put on a song and feel okay again. To feel like that is something that I can’t begin to comprehend but what I do know is music has kept me sane when I can not do it myself.
