Music is certainly something I use. It can be as simple as listening to a piece of soft music
like Fir Elise to quietly fall asleep after a long and tiring day at work.
I also listen to certain electronic music when I have a headache. It really carries my mind
and helps relieve pain, as if it were a kind of magic medicine.
I even listen to the music from “Requiem for a Dream". It gives me the feeling of fear every
time I listen to it. My sister has asked me very strictly neyer to play the music while she S in the
house,
As you see, I like different kinds of music. I really love listening to Bhimsen Joshi (an Indian
singer) when I m in my hometown for the weekend. Ireminds)me 6fthe times when my dad and I
used to sit together and listen to old classical songs. I love listening to the flute (长笛)especially and I am a huge fan of jugalbandi (a performance in Indian plassical music).
My point so far is that music can influence everything you do. You might start to recall
memories related to music. When this happens, your love for music gets stronger. You might start
to feel free and stop consciously (有意积地) sensing the lyrics. When ithis happens, you start
to let music guide your feelings. As for me, 1 especially love this situation of listening to
music. I can’t seem to recall exacly what I was doing or thinking when 1 was listening 10
music. When it ends, It is as if I woke from a dream.
