Anyone who knows me knows that music therapy is the perfect career for me. They also know that it abducts me from real life and makes it impossible for me to function throughout the year, which I think is going to be totally worth it in the end. So basically I'm putting the blame on music therapy for my hiatus.
Sorrynotsorry.
I've always liked to think music is magical, and music therapy allows me to continue that belief in a socially acceptable way. This semester I've been working with children who are deaf and hard of hearing -- I know, it doesn't make any sense, and that's why it makes sense. Music is so much more than I could have ever dreamed in my wild magical dreams. It is so magical that it helped me connect and communicate with children who can't even hear me. It showed me that unicorns and Hogwarts must be real, because music can do the impossible.
As Dumbledore once said, "music, a magic beyond all we do here."
This is beautiful. :) What a wonderful thing to be working on.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely loved this post! Music can be so powerful. I loved growing up having my Mom be a pianist, constantly hearing and waking up to the piano and beautiful classical music. This post just made me so happy :)
