The Joy of Music

My childhood home was filled with music. Sunday morning I was woken up by my Dad singing, we’d sing at church, and I played violin for a time and dabbled with the bass guitar.

Music was something I took for granted.

But over the years I stopped going to church, I didn’t play any instruments, and concerts were few and far between.

I recently picked up the bass guitar again and started attending church. Both activities have infused music back into my life. It’s only now that I can see how much joy music added to my life. So many emotions and ideas can be worked out in song.

So sing us a song, piano man.
