Mundane Magic: Sound

While I believe that our interactions with the world around us via our senses are small miracles in themselves, sound especially seems magical to me. Sound changes us.

The sudden jarring blare of music in a horror movie: the crying of a child: the laughter of a loved one: the pop of dry firewood on a quiet night. Sounds of man and nature. Music, in particular, moves us.
