Lesson 16 – December 16: Music and Media

December 17, 2022

There are many indescribable things that we encounter in a lifetime. The arts, as a whole, is definitely one of them. We are able to communicate so much in so many different ways. It brings me joy knowing that we can establish connections and create understanding through our own different forms of expression. 

Over the past year, I have been exploring music on a “deeper level.” It has been very interesting, to say the least. I realized that, for most of my life, I was only scraping the surface of music. I had never noticed the care that goes into writing and producing music; each beat, each word in a song was meticulously picked by the artist. I had viewed music as something that can only sound good, never considering that it could hold any deeper meaning. For that, I hold a lot of regret. I feel as though I have spent 15 years of my life not properly exploring this type of art. And there is so much to be explored. So now, I am trying my best to catch up by branching out into different genres and listening to albums in their entirety.

My advice to you is this: explore art as much as possible, whether it’s painting, writing, music or anything in between. It prompts creativity, it encourages growth and it can bring new perspectives. The opportunity to gain new perspectives isn’t something you should skip out on.
