Energy Power of Music

21. Energy Power of music

When I met my second cousin Paula after a number of years of being out of contact with her, one of the stories she told me was of the house she grew up in as one of eight children.

She said that the children would be sleeping in on a Saturday morning, but Saturday was clean-the-house day and to get things going her mother, Norma, would turn on the record-player, blasting out a Sousa march and shouting “It’s Saturday, time to get cleaning, everybody up and let’s go!”  They would start out a little grumbly, grab some breakfast, and before they knew it, the music energized them and they would all be off to accomplishing a clean house.

I bought a Sousa CD and tried it. What I learned was—it works. The music in its own energy can energize me!
