Random thoughts from Peru, 7th July 2009

Listening to music is often a passive but extremely powerful activity. So far in life I had never fully appreciated the strong appeal it holds to so many. I have always seen it as a past time that has the ability to take control of your feelings, to transport you from a happy place to a sad place all within the length of a song that lasts only a few minutes. Present circumstances have allowed me to view music from an alternative perspective, to see the power it has to lift ones spirits.
