Thread Name: Music therapy
Subject: RE: Music therapy
It's a long streeeeeeetch for me to think of myself as a "masterful musician". It's my passion for the music that causes me to want to share it, and push through my own musical insecurities. It's my belief in "the MUSIC is the thing" that enables me to do it. My frustration has to do with what we don't know about brain functioning. I suppose the same as Multiple Sclerosis, Cancer, Cerebral Palsy and a host of other medical conditions, I loose patience with knowing, ultimately, remedies will be found, but not yet. It just feels to me that in the subtleties of brain functioning, we may already have answers (in the music), but its not being looked at seriously enough, not been "collated" somehow, and is usually relegated to the bottom of the medical therapies list. I don't know....anyway...guess that's why I started the thread.
