My 2 Cents: Music is medicine

Eric Chilton talks about how music offers him peace during anxious times like this.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — So I was sitting right here during the early part of my day working and I will be the first to admit that you tube is my rabbit hole. Especially when it comes to music.

Those that know me know that music is a part of my soul. It has and always will…speak to me.

So I was looking up story ideas and I made the mistake of clicking on a you tube music video and off I went. Listening to the music from growing up, from my high school and college years and even just old songs that I love.

And as I sang Crusin' from Smokey Robinson it dawned on me. This is the medicine for my soul. During these times when we are all banding together to get through this and out on the other side….music is my thing that relaxes me…on a soul level.

I sang that long…lost in the moment. It may have only been 2 or 3 minutes…but it was enough.

Even the lyrics made sense… baby lets cruise away from here… don’t be confused the way is clear. Makes sense, doesn't it.

And tomorrow is another day... and another song.
