The Point of Music

Posted by njmp at 08:03 PM on May 28, 2008

Sometimes being a music creator, or a "music person" seems impractical. The business is extremely difficult to make a living in, and, it requires TONS of time and dedication to make any kind of appreciable strides.

Then a life event may happen. You lose someone close to you, or some one in your life has a major event and it can shake you up. You may become tempoarily dislodged from your personal musical goals. Hey, well, isn't the whole "music" thing becoming even more difficult to deal with?

THEN, you flip on the radio, or find that CD in your car, that brings solace, reflection and an emotional embrace of sorts. It may bring a release of feelings you've been holding onto. There is a moment where all the dedication to the art makes complete sense. Of course you are involved in the musical arts for the faith of moments when music touched you as nothing else could.

Those days of hard practicing, discouragement, slow progress, and something happened. You may have gained a little musical maturity. You find those scales are not as tough to warm up on anymore. Some of those earlier songs get to be so easy to play, you look for more fascinating challenges.

Find your inspiration.

If it's taking a momentary break, you can rest assured it is just a thought away from tapping you on the shoulder.

Best to you.
