Musical Hobbies (2.24.12)

I love music. Writing, recording, performing, or anything else that has to do with music. But there's more than just music out there. There's sports, cooking, gardening, movies, spending time with loved ones, and so on. So many things to do and experience. It can make life boring if it's all about one thing. I like to keep myself busy with hobbies that I have collected over the years. It keeps things diverse and interesting. Sometimes I'll even combine hobbies.

The great thing about that is there are no set rules, and it forces me to be creative. I approach it with an opened mind, and see what comes out of it. Sometimes I find new things to do, and sometimes it ends up being unaccomplished for that day. But that just gives me something to try again later.

Anyway, getting back to music. It's the same way. There are no set rules. You can mix styles, beats, add new instruments that you would never have thought would fit, or anything else you can think of. Even putting sad lyrics to an upbeat melody, it doesn't matter, or just the opposite. The weirder the better.

I like to keep my creativity going. Whether it be in music, song writing, or any of the current hobbies that I have right now. You never know what can be done until you just go for it.- Tajlyn
