Music as passion

 Music has become my passion because it is good for my soul. It makes me empathetic and insightful, and opens up doors in my mind that allows me to be more creative. When I was just three years old I started to sing, and loved it. As I got older, I began to hone a sound for my favorite albums and artists, and I realized that I had a strong connection with music. Whenever I am singing, my mind becomes free, and I feel like my soul is flying. It’s almost as if I can literally feel any emotions or stress escaping my lungs through my neck and out of my mouth into the air, where they disappear into the clouds. Now that I am older and I am songwriting, I pour my feelings into my lyrics, and portray whatever pain, anger, or happiness I’m experiencing through the melody and the dynamics of my song.

Music is such a powerful concept. Sometimes, the way a certain note sounds can bring out different emotions in people. The Psychology Faculty of the BUAP University in Mexico created a study that determined people with anxiety who listen to heavy metal end up more anxious than before, therefore they were being negatively impacted by music. However, our brains can also be positively impacted by music, especially music with slow rhythms and beautiful melodies. Some of the positive effects music has on people is that it regulates stress hormones, brings out past experiences and memories, makes our memory stronger, and it effects our pulse and heartbeat. Research from the University of Florida states that more brain stimulation comes from musical rhythms than anything else, which is most likely why so many people listen to music while studying or doing homework.

Another amazing thing I know about music is that almost everyone can relate to it. Some people enjoy hip-hop, while others enjoy musical soundtracks. I don’t quite understand how music came to be so universal, but I’m glad it is. While friends share their favorite songs with one another, others use music to heal a broken heart. Some people even find themselves through music. For example, my sister discovered musical soundtracks and enjoyed them, igniting a love for musical theatre. Eventually she started doing musical theatre, and now it has become her career goal. I myself love musical soundtracks, but I have a deeper love for Pop/R&B music.

Music has taken over my life, but in a good way. It betters my life by being there when I need it to be. I have listened to music when being sad, I have listened while being happy and I’ve even listened to music when I am angry, which allows me to channel my emotions and express them through a song instead of at someone. When I get a chance to play music at parties, it’s interesting to see what my friends react to, and it makes me happy to see so many different people all enjoying the same song. Music makes me better as a person because it allows me to be expressive and creative. It relives the stress and pressures of life, and takes me away from reality for a little while. Music is not an unnecessary part of life, it helps me process my thoughts and allows me as well as others to emotionally connect with other people. Music makes me better as a person because without it, I don’t know who I would be.

  My passion Everyone has their own passion. My passions are art and cooking. Since childhood, I have learnt drawing and painting which had both modern and traditional arts. I have learnt one-point perspective, caricature, cartoon, paper collage, traditional art forms etc. I made these art works using colour pencils, crayons, soft pastels, water colours, oil pastels etc. Nowadays I am trying to draw traditional art forms like Warli, Madhubani, Kalighat, Mural, Pattachithra, Gond, Miniature etc. I was so excited when I received India Book of Records. I make art works on A4 size or A3 papers, cardboard, canvas etc. I will be making new and creative art every week. I am planning to do certificate courses and join classes to become more perfect. Art makes very happy and gives me satisfaction. I feel so proud. My other passion is cooking. I love spicy and lip smacking dishes. I learn cooking from my grandmother, mother and youtube channels. I also watch Master Chef Australia where the p...
