BellaOnline Forums Career Musician Can music act like medicine?

There have been times when music has acted similar to medicine (in the sense of native Good Medicine). Have you ever had that experience?

Absolutely!! Sometimes when I'm feeling hurt, I'll write about it.

Most recently, I discovered my ex-fiance on facebook. Actually, his lovely blonde cheerleader wife and I had a mutual friend ( ).

I was SOOO hurt that he'd moved on and was happy. I know, I know, that sounds selfish. But I was really hurt when I left him, and seeing their happiness was a slap in the face, even though it's been a long time.

So, I wrote a song. And it was very healing - it was a little angry, but I was able to release some feelings I hadn't known I was even hanging on to.

Now I can be happy for him. And for me too

Yes! Some makes me smile, some gives me energy, some makes me forget about my problems and some makes me cry but not of sadness. There is one I heard two days ago called Amen by Enigma and this one gives me hope.
