An Open Letter to Music






Dear Music,

We’ve been though a lot together over the years:  Rebellion, heartache, joy, inspiration, perspiration, stadiums, mosh pits, road trips, quiet nights at home – you name it, you’ve been there.  You’ve been the one constant I could count on my entire life.  This is not a relationship to be taken for granted.  There is no que syrah syrah here.  It simply “must be.”  You - must be.  I need you like I need air.  Life without you would be a mistake.  Besides, without you my vocabulary would likely be about a third or less than it is now *glances down at ‘my brain is 80% song lyrics’ t-shirt*. 

To tell the truth, you are part of me, and I am an extension of you.  There is no “me” in music.  But there is “us.”  There will always be us.

In closing, I think Kelly Clarkson said it best:

"My life would suck without you.”

 Don’t ever leave me.

Sincerely,

Your greatest fan ~
