Happy 1st Birthday This Music Life of Mine!

Today marks my 52nd post – one post a week for a whole year!

I set up this blog in the middle of the first lockdown in England. I had wanted to do it for years and the pandemic and all the free time I had made it possible.

It helped me get through what has been a tough and strange year for everyone

and I hope that for those reading it, it has done the same.

Music has always been a part of my life and I believe that it can help you get through whatever situation you’re in. It helps people to grieve, move on, be happy, be sad, appreciate life, relive memories… the list could go on and on.

As a round-up of the past year, I wanted to get some feedback from you. What posts have you liked? What can I change to make it better? What topics would you like me to cover in the future?

Going forward, I am changing the posts from once a week to once a month to give me more time to write about topics in greater detail. Any suggestions are welcome, and I hope that This Music Life of Mine continues to grow and get better.

Thank you to everyone who has read and commented on my posts.

Stay musical,

Sophia
