Music as Healer.

Today was a particularly similar day. Geology class covered the characteristics of earthquakes and was nary a review for me. Calculus class brought me my first "major" exam that I finished with great confidence. Jazz band came with a feeling of a Sunday stroll through a foot of salt-water taffy. For this nominal day there was no cure in site. Wind Ensemble approached and proved to be just as hum-drum as the previous events of the day. That is until the director called upon a special piece of music. This gay song pushes me to play a difficult and exposed part that I am now beginning to master. This changed my day and this made the rest of it golden. Music heals.
