Happiness Within

Music makes me happy, just listening to it when I’m down or I’ve got nothing else to do. I’ll just pop in my ear buds and let the six string soothe my body, let the singer hypnotize my mind, and let the drums put a smile on my face.

The key to happiness, I think, is good music, totally rockin’ friends whom you can tell anything and not feel embarrassed about it, and a family who loves and supports you through everything you get thrown into. The key to happiness is having people who back you up when you’re in a tight spot, and who love you no matter what you do. The key to happiness has to do with you, meaning, believing in yourself and knowing you can push through with the hardest things in life and that you can succeed. That is true happiness.

Hi Gabe,

I really like your thoughts on music! I too use music to help me get through things or alter my mood at the end of the day. I particularly like the section in which you wrote about how you let the stings soothe you and how the singer hypnotizes you and how the drums put a smile on your face. I think it's beautifully written.

I also agree with your thoughts on happiness and what it means to be truly happy. One thing that confused me though was the beginning. Maybe open with your "key to happiness line" so your audience knows right off the bat that music is your key to happiness. You're a good writer and I'm looking forward to reading more of your blogs! Keep up the good work!

Gabe I think Music IS the best thing ever too. Even though we probably listen to different kinds of music it's okay. Music is the cure for anything. :)
