I like to drive with music on. A CD or a radio station – doesn’t matter as long as the music is good. But when I really want to benefit from the power and inspiration of music, I don’t do anything at all. I just sit, listen, and let the music in.

Good music can heal hurts, flow over us like refreshing water, and take us to favorite memories – or sad ones that are precious all the same. But so often, we listen only in passing, making music part of our daily background. That’s fine, I suppose, at times.

But to benefit from all music has to offer, I’ll pause. Pick a favorite song. And play in all-else stillness.

Let your song in today, a gift for your heart and soul.

Peace,

Maureen
