For the past two hours i have been driving around in a deep state amphetamine psychosis listening to my favorite classical and romantic artists (Bach, Bethoven, Chopin, Debussy, ect.), trying to catch a break from APs and SATs. As I roam around the beautiful mountains of the Hudson highlands i thought of all the amazing thing the 20th century has provided for the world. I thought, what invention (if never invented) would have changed who i am today. I must say that it is the portable music devise, the cd player, the mp3 player, the portable radio, ect.
I can not count how many times music has brought me out of a deep depression. I grew up in a decent sized house in the middle of the woods. When i was in elementary school i would steal my brother's CD player and CDs from my fathers enormous music collection, and then wander the woods looking for joy. I soon realized the two things i enjoyed most were music and nature. Portable music brings the two together.
So I am sitting in the back of a Panera bread with my iPod, eating my first meal in two days, does anyone share this passion? If not, what modern invention do you enjoy the most? It could be a car, a computer, a camera. What ever it is, feel free to share.
