How a song revived my spirit

So I recently came across a song I heard a few days ago by a Nigerian artist and as usual, I decided to share it across this wonderful community.

The song is 'Akanchawa' sang by a Nigerian artist who goes by the name "Qing Madi."

The song came at a moment i needed it the most. I was at a point in my life where I felt empty. I mean, there was this blunt, inexplicable void I could feel. I didn't know its root, I just suddenly felt that way. Just like that? I mean, it's really crazy, and I've always said times without number that the mind is a powerful space that we can't really explain.

A man without a stable mind is a man who's just passing by this ephemeral planet called Earth. Well, just few days ago I found myself in a zone where I lost the zeal to do anything. Something we call 'Apathy.' Yeah, I lost the desire to eat, to sleep, and even to laugh. My world felt as though it were crumbling, but for no coherent reason. I tried doing a lot things to get myself: I called my Mum, some female friends, took a stroll and so many more. But how foolish of me to forget that the fastest route to the heart and mind is through music. Well, even it might not work for you but for me, it's my safe haven.

I got a song recommendation from YouTube the title was "Akanchawa.' I played this song and the instant the first beat came on I felt this freshness that brought a certain kind of calmness to my mind. At that moment, I was washing the dishes, then this song just reverberated in the air as though it were waiting for the perfect moment to express it's therapeutic effects. I sang along to a song I heard for the first time. From singing, I started smiling, and from smiling, I started dancing. Well, from here everything went as smooth as ever. Yeah, it was that easy.

If only I had realized on time that all I needed, was to find something that had a great effect on the mind. What better thing is there than music?

I immediately got the therapy I sought. I felt the life that seemed dead to me. I wore a smile upon my frown. It was like I was reborn into Earth. I came out a fresh new being. When things feel a little bit strange, please never forget the healing power of music. You can use this one above as a trial, perhaps it might work for you, but even if it doesn't, there are a whole lot of songs that might suit your taste. Remember, not every song is meant for everyone. It's a personalized feeling. Find yourself and find what genre you're drawn to. Some genres or certain songs might not just work for you no matter how hard you try.

For now, I'll stay with this song, and this song, with me.
