Music.

For most persons it is all through their lives, celebrations, losses, just living. It reminds us of events, places, people, history, and who we are as individuals.

I was lucky to grab my friend, Derek Fortin, former lead singer for The Dawn (among his other participation in several bands), to discuss how he sees music in his life while also being an RN and now a director in the medical world. And we also get into how music moves other humans, how it can express things we think, feel or live but we're unable to put it into what we feel are the right words.

One of my favorite lyrics is from one of the songs by Paul Simon: 
My life's so common it disappears
And sometimes even music
Cannot substitute for tears
- Cool, Cool River, album: The Rhythm of the Saints - released 1990

Music is a powerful medium to evoke serious emotions of joy, resignation, anger, love and/or sadness. And understanding what another human is living, connecting us to one another.
