music is the key that unlocks my spirit. i'm more aware of this every time i indulge in certain kinds of music. now if i could only know which certain kind of music to play each time, i could take over the world.
cuz i only get it dead-on right sometimes. that might be because i don't listen to as much music as i should.
i listen when i'm driving (99% of the time, it's my faves burned on CDs) and sometimes i listen in the house. i would say i get less than half of the daily recommended allowance for listening.
it's cuz the people who live here would rather watch telly and DVDs. and i think they need hearing appliances cuz they can't hear the telly unless the volume is turned up to Maximum Decibel. which means i can hear the bloody thing even whilst wearing headphones.
totally annoying.
but tonight, i'm in heaven. the other blisses have been in their respective bedrooms for the past several hours, leaving me in the living room alone. this occurs so rarely that i didn't realize it until a few hours had passed. and i realized i could play my mu-sic!
what's playing right now? "please pardon me (you remind me of a friend)" by rufus and chaka khan:
...hope you don't mind.
you look like a friend of mine.
and it's seldom you find
a face that's so kind.
and now i must bid y'all fine folks adieu. a sista went to bed in the wee hours and had to get up early. i'se tired!
thank God i don't have to get up at any sp'cific time til sunday...

Ahh... totally know what you mean!!
The other night everyone was sleeping... I turned on my music in the kitchen and danced around and cleaned at the same time. It was awesome! And much needed!

I always have music on, it soothes me, makes me happy, sad, angry, joyous.
It sets me free.
