At times music can be helpful. I like the group Anthem Lights...A new discovery for me when I was perusing youtube. A Capella has always been my thing. I love to sing!!!!!

I don't remember seeing the movie, King Ralph, so I'll have to try and rent a DVD.

1 ReactionTeresa you will like the movie, lots of old fashioned humor and slapstick type comedy.

2 Reactionsyes, john and the world: As I have said before many times, music is healing, it is a food for the soul, it is vibrant, like a generous portion of your best tasting food, it is magic, a fantasy world to float you on a trip to anywhere. To washing your dishes with a sway of the body. While reading a book. While teaching my child to read with background music to match the story. It is never ending. It is love. Peach

1 ReactionMusic is def healing and mood-lifting. You could, for example, got to Spotify.com and make a playlist of upbeat songs by, say, James Taylor, Fleetwood Mac - "You make loving fun" and stay away from angry rap lyrics and sad songs.
Classical - Rachmaninoff (emotional), Ravel, Prokofiev (Romeo and Juliet) are some more suggestions. Happy music!

4 Reactions@this old fashioned lady still uses tapes mostly and then some cd's so i get exactly what I like. Everything is changing so fast in the electronic world . It is difficult and sometimes impossible to keep up with the world. So, please be patient and kind to us old people as we are also in great pain. And because of the age we have a number of different pains. We are all in the same boat so watch out for the leaks. Peach

4 ReactionsWhen my wife was ill, music, TV, etc. was all too stimulating for her so we lived a silent existence for years and years. I missed my music a TON (my favorite is the Moody Blues), but I was hindered by the fact I am deaf in one ear and ear buds, headphones, etc. were frustrating since I lost any stereo effect, hearing only a weird portion of the music, etc.
So for what it's worth and just in case anyone in this tread has the same issue, after much trial and error and searching I finally found DJ, single-ear, stereo headphones! They are made by a company named Beyerdynamic and they brought back my ability to enjoyably listen to music when I needed the house to be quiet and now in places like airplanes and the train. (I have no relationship with and nothing to gain from mentioning this company.)
A just in case PSA.
Strength, Courage, and Peace
