Love and Music and Questions

Falling in love with another person is lovely. Sex is fun. 

But have you ever fallen in love with a song? Have you ever heard a song for the first time and felt like something inside you unlocked, like some you suddenly understood some new secret joy about the universe? Have you ever found that song and then listened to it over and over again, craving it like life itself, resenting that you have to sleep because that's keeping you away from the song? Ahh, is there any better love than that?

The best part is, even when you find that you're attention is drifting away from the song, the change is still there. It still altered you. It still made you better. Nothing changed that. Every time you go back to the song, everything is still there. 

No greater love.
