My satellite radio preset stations are an interesting mix. I listen to Country/60’s/Coffee Shop/and The Message most often. And, I can
get in a musical rut at times. For me, like many, music is therapeutic…matching, enhancing, and sometimes even reversing our moods. The other day I popped in an old CD: Carreras, Domingo, Pavarotti singing an Italian aria in unison. My vehicle transformed to a concert hall, the soaring voices lifted my soul to a dimension beyond some of the short flights I’ve taken with Neil Diamond or The Beatles. I had a Shawshank Redemption moment as the music washed over me – how could anything be this beautiful and moving? The experience caused me to ponder the gift of music – where it even comes from and why it graces us so deeply and effectively. I don’t know the answer, but I am thankful for it.
