From the Mind of Bob

What I think, what I hear, what I see

The Power of Music

2021-12-09 Music Bob Ossler

Day after day I’m more confused
Yet I look for the light through the pouring rain
You know that’s a game that I hate to lose
And I’m feelin’ the strain
Ain’t it a shame
Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away
Oh, give me the beat boys and free my soul
I wanna get lost in your rock and roll and drift away

And when my mind is free
You know a melody can move me
And when I’m feelin’ blue
The guitar’s comin’ through to soothe me

Dobie Gray - Drift Away


There is nothing like music, and a song you love, to get you through the tough times. Whether it’s work, family, or relationships, music can soothe and provide the strength to carry on when things don’t go your way. I have always relied upon music to accentuate/celebrate the high points in life, and to provide perspective and comfort in the tough times.
