How Music Changed My Life: Will's Story

February 10, 2014

For as long as I can remember, music has been in my life. My parents showed me their love for music which has rubbed off on me in a very good way! Music was always being played in the house, day and night, weekdays and weekends. Even at the young age of 4, I attended my very first concert as a child, which will forever be etched into my memory. This moment opened me up for many more music filled times. Since I expressed to my parents my love for music, concerts had become a regular occurrence in my family. Traveling the United States and parts of Canada on family trips allowed me to hear what others listen to and has opened me up to various genres. I feel that music is necessity in my life to perform my everyday tasks. It is also something I use to calm myself in stressful situations. Even what I listen to reflects what mood I'm in. I don't know what I would do without music in my life. It is what keeps me going. Forget a television, just give me a radio and I'm set for life! Music is something that I cannot live without.
