             Everyone has some sort of addiction, whether they know it or not. Everyone has one thing they love so much, they would rather not give it up if they had the choice.  Well, my addiction is books. Novels.  Reading is my escape from life.  Reading gives me another sense of adventure, like playing music does.  Reading is everything to me.  Yet, I would not be able to give up my music either.  Now, I'm not talking about listening to music, I'm talking about creating music.  Playing my clarinet or flute gives me the sense of purpose.  Maybe me playing a instrument will inspire some other children to learn how to play.  Playing any sort of instrument opens up parts of your brain that you don't use on an average day.  Music makes learning abilities rise as well.
