"Without music, life would be a mistake."-Friedrich Nietzsche
The quotes above simply say it. Just imagine a life where sound ceases to exist. Music is pure sound shaped by us for comfortable use. The role of music in our lives is just too big to explain. Music can save lives and even treat the sick. Music can alter emotions and even change people in a good way. Who never heard of music? It dates back even 3000 years of history because people back then invented instruments. Music reshapes your mind's memory and how it works. For example: You make up a song to remember something important so that you don't lose it. I believe music is nature's voice speaking to us. Though vast, music is not that difficult to understand. Some people never listen to music because either they think it's evil because their traditions tells them so. This isn't the case. You almost hear music everyday of your life. We all watch television and commercials have music in them and movies among other things. Some music boosts the body and fills it with energy. Music can also give you confidence and even raise your Intelligence Quotient(IQ). Music has profound powers on us. Some of us just can't live without it. Some of us have successful careers because of it. We should be thankful for its existence. Music makes us happy and make things seem like they are easy.

I always heard music through out my life and my life is very hard and I sooner or later encounter problems that could threaten my career. I always know freaking out can worsen things and it does. That would always happen to me. Music was a medicine that healed me. I remained calm in most situations just by listening to it. Music eliminates impatience with patience as it gives you something to do and besides it's the easiest thing we can ever do. You can listen to music in bed and go right to sleep without doing anything. The variety of music is another thing. The world has more than 20 kinds of music. Some are traditional and others alien. Some experts agree that music opens, treats, and reaches the very deepest regions of the mind.
A third thing you have to know is that music will never die. After the death of our generation, music will extended into the further future will it will evolve into new categories and continue to influence and entertain people. Animals also like some music. For example: My friend done an experiment and shows that some cats like hip/hop music better than rock music. But it depends greatly maybe if you own a pet.
Music can make life interesting. Music lets us express ourselves and you can tell the personality of a person by the music he/she listens too. Music came from it many cultures and different people and lifestyles. Music made by us, people shows simply who we are, what we like, what we are like, and what we think of life. Music can be thought as the big part of answer to the question of the meaning of life. So what else do I have to say besides writing this article while listening to my favorite song?
