Music

Music has always been a big part of my life.  I like how Ntozake Shange says it in her poem (excerpt):

i live in music
is this where you live?



Others' thoughts on music:

Music was my refuge.  I could crawl into the space between the notes and curl my back to loneliness. 
~Maya Angelou

Music is your own experience, your thoughts, your wisdom.  If you don't live it, it won't come out of your horn. 
~Charlie Parker

Music is what life sounds like. 
~Eric Olson

Exactly.
