Finding solace in music and literature from "summary" of M Train by Patti Smith
Music and literature have always been my companions in times of solitude and uncertainty. The melodies of Bob Dylan and the words of Haruki Murakami have a way of soothing my restless soul, providing a sense of comfort and understanding that is often hard to find in the chaos of the world. When I feel lost or overwhelmed, I turn to the familiar tunes of my favorite songs and the familiar pages of my favorite books, finding solace in their timeless wisdom and beauty.
In the quiet moments of the day, when the world seems too loud and demanding, I retreat into the world of music and literature, seeking refuge in their gentle embrace. The melodies of my favorite songs transport me to a place of peace and tranquility, where all my worries and fears seem to melt away. The words of my favorite authors speak to me in a way that no one else can, offering me solace and companionship in a world that often feels cold and indifferent.
In the dark hours of the night, when sleep eludes me and my mind is filled with doubts and fears, I reach for my guitar or a book, seeking solace in the familiar rhythms of a song or the comforting embrace of a story. Music and literature have a way of calming my restless mind, grounding me in the present moment and reminding me that I am not alone in my struggles. Through their melodies and words, I find a sense of connection and belonging that is hard to come by in this fast-paced and disconnected world.
In the end, music and literature are more than just forms of entertainment for me; they are my lifeline, my constant companions in a world that is often overwhelming and confusing. Through their beauty and wisdom, I find solace and strength to face whatever challenges life may throw my way, knowing that as long as I have my favorite songs and books by my side, I will never truly be alone.
