Music is the most high

I always fall in love for the places I visit and the people I meet, I end up rooting in every time. This time was different I feel I branched out. When I found out two of my favorite bands were touring together in France a strong certainty within me knew I would go, curiously, a couple friend of mine were about to visit me heading France through the ferry and they were on for the concert! We embraced the adventure and headed to St Malo. Crossing the sea was such an adventure for me! Nothing would weaken my feeling of freedom crossing the ocean for the first time.
St Malo is a sea hug shaped small town in the french coast of the North Sea. Wild beaches hug the sea and create a feeling of being in private islands. Boats everywhere. Caves, tall stone islands holding castles and towers. It felt simple and eternal in there. Here in this little town we would hear alive the music that inspired my daily life. The concert was in a small club, La Nouvelle vague, and there were around 200 persons which made it familiar and lovely. During the concert I felt blessed in joy singing those powerful messages full lungs up along with the singers as the place was so small. But what made this concert so special was getting to know the artists after the show and sharing what we all have in common, the joy of being alive, making friendships, connecting through the healing vibrations and messages of the music that will always mysteriously give our existence an ethereal touch of magic.
We are all brothers and sisters and the world is becoming more and more an open space for energies, people and information to travel freely and connect. No sea or paradigm can stop us from discovering and rediscovering this wonderful planet and our wonderful selves. In St Malo I felt at home. In there I made friends and met people that I admire and this inspiration no money can buy. I felt the freedom running in my veins and all the possibilities ready to be walked through, no matter where we go, we take our heart and our light and amazing stories wait for us. There is so much more that unites us than that which divides us and this journey has made that an inspiring lesson for me. We all need to travel and explore, connect with people and share, learn with each others, we all want to create a bright future. Music has the power to unite people. It is a gate through which we transcend the doubts and open up to the dance of life.
