I love movies so much that I can watch a movie through the night; there have, as a matter of fact, been times when movies have caused me sleepless nights. But then, I have made many more sacrifices in my quest to acquire more musical knowledge. Now, this is where the distinction lies. I am neither an actor nor a movie producer, but I am a musician; and I love practising music more than anything else. In fact, I am currently sitting in front of a keyboard where I intend to play as I write this post 😀.
This post was inspired by the fact that I sometimes wonder which I love most: music or movies. It is always very easy for me to say dismissively that I love music the more; of course, I love music more than every other hobby of mine, but I have recently started looking at it a bit differently. Though I claim to love music the more, it seems like I watch more movies than I listen to music these days. That has sometimes made me feel like I am lying to myself about which I love most, but then, I know what I feel. I feel like I love music the most.
No doubt, I love movies too. How else would it have been able to cost me sleep, but I will pick music over movie any time, any day. I guess someone's love for a particular thing is not measured by how much the person consumes it. If not, I obviously would have loved movies the more. Now, let us speak of how much I am engaged with music, and why I think I love music the more.
The question of which I have made and will make more sacrifices for says it all. As a matter of fact, the sacrifices I have made in my quest for musical knowledge are enough to prove how much love I have for music over movies. And yet, there are still many sacrifices to be made. I obviously haven't acquired enough, and I may never. This at least says a lot about how much I love music. In all, I am merely a consumer when it comes to movies. But as for music, I can do a lot more. That notwithstanding, I love movies too.
What about you? Which do you love most 😊?
