I'm not a very good writer, but when it comes down to writing about something I'm very passionate about, I seem to do pretty well. You already know by the title of this blog post, but today I'm writing about my "escape".
I could go on and on for hours about how much music helps me cope. This may sound weird, but music is almost like an escape from reality for me. I feel like once I put my earbuds in and turn on the music, all of my worries have floated away and will never come back. It's almost like I've entered an empty room in an isolated place, and I'm all alone with nobody to bother me. The music takes me away to a place where I'll always be happy, and nothing bad will happen. For example, I could be in a room full of people screaming and talking all at once. I would be trying to do something, but it would be almost as impossible as picking up a building with your bare hands. After realizing that there's no possible way to work, I'd put in my earbuds, and all the sound around me would just stop. It's almost like everything have shut down, and I'm the only person on earth and the only sound is the sound of the music that's playing.
Like I said earlier, music is an escape for me, an escape from reality. It's an escape from all the overwhelming things happening in my life that are swallowing me whole. Imagine a huge shadow standing behind you ever single minute of your life. To me, that shadow is my anxiety. The huge shadow is waiting for the moment that I break, and will soon get the chance to swallow me whole and keep me held hostage until I finally get over myself. I almost feel like the music I listen to is a huge army fighting the army of the anxiety. The music plays, and begins to fight the anxiety away, and most of the time, the music wins.
