It was your heart on the line

I am so content. Theres something about getting new music that makes me so happy. Having new sounds flow into my ears is so exciting. And makes my whole body smile. I like that someone made those sounds and arranged those notes and those words just so that people would listen to it.Each individual sound has existed before. But they're never quite the same. The number of arrangements that came from a scale of essentially 8 notes is infinite. And I think that's pretty fantastic. Each song has existed since the moment the artist finished it, and it could take years and years for it to reach my ears. Its like meeting new people, and then leaving them. You have been on the earth. And they have been on the earth. And at a certain point, your paths cross and you exist in that moment together. And up until that moment, you had no idea they existed, but after that moment you could miss them with all your heart if you so choose. Or maybe you don't choose, but you do anyways because your heart wants to. Because a lot of the time, your heart knows better than your mind. And maybe thats why music can make us feel so good, even if we don't understand it all. Maybe it goes through your ears and straight to your heart. And then is sent to your bloodstream to pulse all around your body, until finally the blood gets to your brain and you understand.
