Music Delights the Mind

As I sit here, eating jellybeans and listening to the soundtrack of The Holiday movie, my mind races with sayings and pictures, thoughts that only music can inspire. But yet there is not one thought that I can fully explain to you in mere words... even though 80% of my thoughts have to do with words... I can't. I really have no idea why I'm writing to you except the excuse that I wanted to write something, anything!

How about this as a subject, music. It is a beautiful thing! Full of wonder and awe... another thing that amazes me about music is that in some lovely way it has the power to over take your soul and mind in entirely new ways, and in avenues, you never thought possible just because your listening to it. It gives sight a sound.. like that moment in a movie when the two lover's look at each other in the eyes... music gives a voice to the scene that nothing else can... it's overwhelming, and compelling. Music is a breath to the mind, and a escape to the human imagination!

Hans Zimmer does a excellent job for The Holiday, it's absolutly beautiful! Here is a sample of the soundtrack below:
