Maybe I'm biased because it's my major, but music has the ability to do whatever we need. For example:
If I need to calm down, I listen to my "Chill Time" playlist.
If I need more energy, I listen to my "Hype Up" playlist.
If I need a little more holiday spirit, then there's the "Tis the Season" list
Spirituality is all under the "His Day" playlist.
All of the feels and pain? I go to my make believe world of "Renitalm" and listen to the gods and goddesses of R&B/Soul music: Sam Smith, Adele, etc. Y'all know what I'm talking about.
No matter what crap is going on in life, music understands. It is quite literally my best, most compassionate friend in the world. Within minutes my worries are gone and I can move on with my life.
So make some playlists, reach out to different genres, become a well-rounded, eclectic person that can see the bright side of every awful song. It's worth it.
In order to move on to what I want to become I have to leave behind some of the mistakes that I've made. Music helps me come to terms with my actions, accept the consequences, and encourages me to push forward, striving for better things. The struggle is definitely real, but it is also going to be worth it.
I have to believe that.
