Life's Mellowed Enjoyments

I've found that my appreciation of music has increased as I've gotten older. I'm one of those people who listen to music while working in the office. I love to have a beat going in the background. In moderate/small doses I prefer TV over music, but it is music I would turn to if I were to fill my day.

I really believe that music is a sacred expression of humanity. Some music is more sacred than others, but all expressions have the potential. For me, the sacred element partially derives from the ecstatic nature of music. Then there is the universal nature of music, with musical "truths" shared by disparate peoples. Is music God? I don't know, but at the least, it is a bridge to the divine.
