Music
by Avalon Gravelly
M
Mondays spent mumbling and grumbling about lost sleep and mundane marathons run inside your brain because your mind feels the need to rush millions of miles a minute to keep up with your multitudinous projects and homework assignments, piling up like mountains beside the bed you wish you could go back to.
U
Until you open those doors that are painfully ordinary to anyone else, but to you they were uniquely forged out of the unhappy feelings and monologues accidentally blurted out to used-to-be friends. Those doors are an ingress to a world of untold treasures. Where the inhabitants are unabashed to express themselves in an unbridled outburst of unencumbered beautiful noise.
S
Seeing your best friend turn to you during a sacrosanct moment of rest, with the sunniest smile because they are filled with pure glee at the different aspects and layers of the song that it is seemingly salubrious. Their mood is so contagious that you are now saturated with endless joy, too much to contain so that you display your shared glee with a shared smile
I
Inside that inspirational room, that some would call impractical because "you aren't going to amount to anything playing those inane instruments all the time." In that room you find immense satisfaction and an ineluctable elation that comes from being a part of an intensely tight-knit community who were also blessed with the innate talent and passion for interpreting melodious arrangements.
C
Cathartic, yet sometimes cacophonous, music creates bonds between us that are far from clandestine. There may be cliques organized by social statuses, but when people converse about music the different groups become knowledgeable about the fact that everyone has a conglomerate of music styles which creates the same conflagration in their soul as a different mix of music does for another. Controversial tastes in music should not present us with a conundrum about reaching a consensus of the best flavor. Rather we should be cordial, and in our copious numbers we should create a convivial atmosphere in which we can live together peacefully. After all, why should we castigate fellow music lovers simply for striking their note of concord elsewhere?
