Passion/Music
Today in art class, I heard two students (astronomy majors) talk about astronomy with such unbelievable passion that I couldn’t help but think damn, I wish I felt that way about something. But quickly I realized, that’s me with music. Then I thought, damn I wish my passion could involve something more practical that could transition to a stable career, like medicine or computer science, etc. Everybody loves music, it’s nothing special to be into it. But THEN I thought, maybe it’s a blessing to be passionate for music. It’s a universal language that everybody can understand and appreciate. Who DOESN’T like or listen to music? Maybe we speak in different dialects (musical genres), but we all listen to music. It’s weird; I started thinking, wow it’s really the only subject that ALL people like. Though it’d be hard to find a stable career through the arts, I realized I’m grateful that I have a passion for and talent in it. Music is one of the few ways that I can try to inspire and touch the lives of anyone and everyone.
