Oceans pass me by

7/16 Edited to

... Read moreAs someone who has spent countless hours playing guitar and exploring the emotional depths music can unlock, I find that songs like "Oceans Pass Me By" resonate on a deeply personal level. The phrase "to run but I won't" captures that internal conflict many artists and listeners face—wanting to escape overwhelming feelings yet choosing to confront them through music. Playing guitar has always been my gateway to expressing emotions that words alone cannot convey. When I hear or play a melody that mirrors my mood, it creates a cathartic release. The hashtags attached to the article—#guitar, #music, and #feel—highlight how intertwined these elements are. Music, especially played on the guitar, has a unique ability to encapsulate complex feelings in a way that feels both intimate and universal. I remember a time when I struggled with moments of hesitation and uncertainty, much like the sentiment "to run but I won't." Instead of retreating, I focused on my music, letting the guitar guide my emotions. This not only helped me process my feelings but also inspired songwriting that connected with others facing similar experiences. This article encourages us to embrace the interplay between our emotions and musical expression. Whether you're a musician or a listener, the feeling of being carried away by the ocean of sound yet choosing to stay and face the tide is a powerful metaphor for growth and resilience. Music invites us to dive into our feelings rather than letting them simply pass us by.

Study oceanic animals with me! 🌊
I am not looking to become a marine biologist. while i bet it would be totally cool, i am choosing to do this as a hobby! i have always loved ocean animals so i thought why not learn more about them. It really has been so much fun making this and learning things i never would have known. 🌊🐠🦀🐙🐬🌊

SHARKS ARE NOT DANGEROUS ⬇️
The truth is sharks are in trouble, their numbers are slowly dwindling, and its mostly because of humans. Our fear that they will harm or kill us is so great that no one seems to care when they get hurt or killed. Whats crazy is that when a shark and a human interact a lot of times the human doesn
