Connect through music

Very late post (super busy with school, GRE's, work, what have you), but I went to a concert this last April and wanted to share an experience I had. I was there to see Bonobo (an amazing band you need to check out!) I was listening to the music and dancing off to the side of the stage, but on a raised platform. At some point I noticed that everyone was moving together, and I just don't mean dancing to the same beat (because duh we are all hearing the same thing), I mean really together. It was if for a few moments the entire crowd became a singular mass. May be I was just tired or was really into the music, but it was breath taking. There were so many different types of people in that crowd: young, middle aged, old, black, white, asian, etc. It was breath taking and beautiful because of these differences. At that moment, no one was aware of anyones race, religion, sexual orientation;  at that moment all anyone cared about was listening and moving to the music, and they were all doing it together. Music transcends all of our petty opinions about each other. I hope one day the world at large will realize that our differences are that which make us beautiful, but that we are more alike than we are different, which is what makes us one.
