The Symphony of Life


I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music.”

-George Eliot

 

How often, on ordinary days, those dull black and white keys become extraordinarily vibrant and magnetizing. How frequently do those strings on your friend’s guitar long to produce sweet music right out of the mind of the player. The melody is always there, you just need to find it. Be it a lush green meadow in spring or a lonely tree on a mountain, everything has a certain explicit music to it. It is a pity that only some develop that ability to find that melody, that never-ending soundtrack tailor made for a movie, a movie called life, and a greater pity that only a minute fraction of them actually understand it. Agreed, it is pretty difficult to understand how  music, rather trivial in most of our lives, could influence and inspire the events that take place in your life, and the lives of all the people around you.

 

When music becomes a part of your life, beautiful things happen. You start supplementing your vision with the pleasant notes of nature, adding that favorite symphony to the tranquility of the Kashmir valley, or maybe overlay the latest simple plan punk rock single on being scolded upon by parents. Now, that makes life a bit more interesting…eh!

Hoping for a musical life henceforth.

  3. Hi there,

    I’m a music teacher in New Zealand. I’m setting up my first blog and trying to customise my theme. I want a beautiful music header and stumbled across the above image. May I use it on my blog?

    Thanks for your consideration.

  5. To whom it may concern,
    I am a student in year 8 developing a magazine for a school assessment task. I am wanting to use an image off your website as a part of the magazine and so would like your permission to use the picture. It is located here:
    notesofalife.wordpress.com/
    Can you please email me if this would be OK for me to use it in my school project.
    Thanks.
