When I hear “Imagine” by John Lennon, I think about him as if he was still around, alive and well, even though he was stolen from us almost 45 years ago.
All this to say that if one wants to leave a legacy or aim for eternal life, he or she should become musician or singer. Music never dies and constantly reminds us of its creator!I’m not saying we should become musicians or singers for this sole reason, but let’s face it, if we seek fame or an endless recognition, this path sure beats being a head of state, a scientist, a top athlete or even a novelist!
Music is such a broad and widespread medium that it touches all of us, at any moment and anywhere from our living room, car or elevators and waiting rooms. It reminds us of old memories and revives strong emotions.
This doesn’t mean that music fills only that need. It’s also an act of creation and sharing with others in the present moment. In sum, it’s a journey of artistic expression, connection, and growth that enriches our lives and the lives of others while never extinguishing itself.
To me, right there, it truly is the only pathway to eternal life I can truly bank on!
