Hello reddragon,
I confess I shared that story because I thought it might be refreshing to come at this from a different perspective. Music and storytelling were two tools that helped me understand and share my own experience. Sometimes, getting everything out is half the battle.

At any rate, sometimes it's pleasant to take a break and talk about something other than whatever problems we might be carrying. After all, we're still human beings underneath all of that.

i find comfort a bit in folk type music.

I really love that Shamisen/Taiko song. It amazes me that two simple instruments could come together to create something so powerful. Folk music can also be soothing and comforting to me. Do you have any favorites in particular?
