上午好！我叫莎拉·威廉姆斯。非常荣幸来到这里与大家分享音乐是如何影响了我的人生的。
1．你是否曾经历过黯淡无光、万念俱灰的一段时光？两年前，我被告知得了一种很难治愈的严重疾病，全身一直疼痛，觉得自己活不了多久了。我非常害怕，感到十分孤独、沮丧。后来有一天，我需要去做两个小时的治疗。医生想让我放松，就让我听一些音乐，其中一首歌是《快乐》。2.听着这首歌，我感觉好多了；从那时起我开始一直听音乐。约翰·A.洛根曾说过：“音乐是心灵的良药。”的确如此，音乐助我康复。
音乐给我带来了快乐。当我听音乐的时候，音乐让我的心情放飞，像风中的风筝。音乐给予我力量，也让我得到解脱。音乐是岩石，让我倚靠，变得坚强，度过那些艰难的日子。此外，音乐还给予我希望和满足感。它成了我最好的朋友。它向我内心深处诉说鼓励的话语。
当然，我希望你们不要经历和我一样的痛苦。同时，我们都会经历悲伤或孤独的时光。3.在那时，音乐可以帮助你，就像它曾经帮助我一样。我希望大家都能以某种方式开始珍惜音乐，让它成为你生活的一部分。谢谢！
