Silent melody

Sometimes I feel stagnant or like I am in limbo, and sometimes this makes the whole world feel like it is what I can best describe as "still." When everything is "still," it seems like everything is unchanging and has always been as it is. But what is weird, is that even though everything becomes completely quiet or calm and there is no sound, I hear this strange sort of melody emerge within the silence. I can't describe it, and I have trouble remembering more than two notes (not enough to create a melody.) All I ever remember is that it is so incredibly beautiful that it makes me want to cry. I know it sounds weird, but it feels like it is BEHIND my experiences of the world; it feels like it is always there but drowned-out and so it is only in those moments of stillness that I can hear it.

Does everything sometimes feel "still" in this sense to you? When it does, do you hear a bizarre yet glorious melody in the silence?

    Good for you. I suggest hiking. Go to the top of some big hill or mountain or cliff or anywhere in nature where there is no civilization in sight or ear shot and where there is a big, beautiful view. You will probably hear it best there and in all it's glory. If you're worried about it I wouldn't be. I don't have this particular experience but I have a lot of strange ones. If it's harmless, make the best of it!

    Hmm... I don't know. Sounds like something that happens to one of my friends. She randomly trances out and will hum the most beautiful melodies, but she doesn't remember when i tell her about it later.

    Listen to me. This probably could be the most important thing you have ever read.

    Exactly the same thing happens to me.

    I hear music. Glorious, beautiful music. Brand new music, unlike any other kind in the universe. Sometimes for hours at a time.

    You have the Gift. The most precious thing in all of existence. A living connection to the heart of music.

    Or you might just be crazy and hearing things.

    Either way, Good luck.

    it's either the music of the spheres, the legendary melody created by the spirits of the planets themselves, or well, that's what it sounds like. few people have ever heard it, or known it. You may just be lucky and be tuned in. listen and enjoy, that's about all you can do.
