The Power of Music
By Rebecca L., Hoffman Estates, IL
"... Music has come to define a large part of my life so far. The wonderful thing about music, from my perspective, is that it somehow describes my life and experiences better than I can. Instead of straining to recall a hot summer night three years ago, I prefer to listen to The Eagles’ “Hotel California” and wait for the memories to pour back over me, as if they occurred yesterday. That, I believe, is the very essence of music: to provide not only a soundtrack to my life, but to describe things that I cannot. That, I believe, is the magic of music."
