about

Lesson 1
“MUSIC SAVED ME”
I composed “Music Saved Me” while being bombarded by constant noise and stress. This song was a catalyst for my transformation and gave me clarity about what was missing in my life. After the death of my young son, I lived in a sad and silent world. Although I allowed myself to grieve in the early years, later I completely blocked my feelings. I was deadened and joyless. But one day, I decided that I deserved a life filled with music instead of noise. I made difficult choices to change my life. Every day I am thankful for the peacefulness and joy I’ve found on this path. My lesson will discuss the metaphorical contrast between noise and music. Noise represents confusion, emptiness, and irritation. Music counters this as magical, uplifting, and peaceful. I hope you can find parallels in your own life – to dispel noise and instead fill your life with creativity and meaning.

lyrics

MUSIC SAVED ME

When I was young, my senses brought pleasure
Life was a garden, memories I treasure
But I lost my passion as years wore on
Too busy to notice my senses were gone

I was so sad; pain left a hole
‘Til noise turned to music and rescued my soul
Music inspired, while noise was empty
When noise turned to music
It saved me

When I was young, I loved my eyesight
Colors and sounds filled me with delight
But over time color turned gray
And sound became noise all through my day

I was so sad; pain left a hole
‘Til noise turned to music and rescued my soul
Music inspired, while noise was empty
When noise turned to music
It saved me

When I was young, dreams I could touch
I tasted and savored; I loved life so much
I missed my senses when they slipped away
But the magic returned when music would play

I was so sad; pain left a hole
‘Til noise turned to music and rescued my soul
Music inspired, while noise was empty
When noise turned to music it saved me
When noise turned to music it saved me

about

Judy Unger Los Angeles, California

I have been an artist all of her life. Although I played classical guitar in college, I left music behind when I was 21. 30 years later, I began writing songs to help me cope with the challenges in my life. Many of my songs are dedicated to my son, Jason, who died in 1992. I love to inspire hope of healing with my music, because my songs have certainly healed me of any pain. ... more
