Many people like music in life. That is why MP3 player, CD player and Ipod are so hot nowadays. For the question of why music is so important to them, different persons have different answers based on their distinct experiences. From my point of view, I think that there are two major reasons for those people who are like me to choose music. The one is exploring imagination, and the other is expressing emotion. I will explore them in this essay.
Fist of all, music can explore imagination, which is very important that one person can have. When we listen to music and follow the rhythms and the words, we feel like that we are in the story, which the song is talking about. For example, listening to the light music or classical music played by violin, sometimes, we immerse in the rhythm. And sometimes we dream that we are on a grass land in the golden sun shine. We are playing on this beautiful land. In this sense, music brings us to our dream, and helps us imagine the beautiful life.
On the other hand, we can express our emotions and feelings via music. Music is a very good method to release our feeling. For example, when we are depressed, we would like to listen to Rock music, and dance with the music; in the funeral, we play music to express our heartbreak and memory to the person who leave us away; when we are success, we play music to celebrate it. By doing so, we express our feeling: sadness, grief and happiness. Music gives us one more option when we want to release our feeling, and it is always the best one.
In short, from the reasons I mentioned above, some people like me, love to listen to the music for dreaming of the beautiful life and expressing their feeling. I think, music is the best way for us to release emotion, as well as it gives us more motivation for our beautiful life.
