since i'm not that much of a religious person, MUSIC is the place (state of mind) where i can find my happiness or fulfillment or even a cover to my sadness and sorrow... listening to music is already fulfilling to me... i tried so much or a lot about religion that just can't give me happiness or a feeling of fulfillment.
yah i can relate to that. Music is considered the universal language. As the saying goes, it can soothe even the angry heart.
I am also into music, especially Christian music. i can also find happiness and refuge in it (probably just as much as you do)
And also, as much as you have not felt any kind of fulfillment in religion, so do I. Rather it's my relationship with Lord and with other Christians who are in the same Church as I am that I've found sanctuary. So it's really not religion that has made feel fulfilled. But rather, it is the knowledge that God will always be there to guide me where ever I will go, and that I will always have friends who will be there to encourage me that has made happy about my spirituality. My love for music is still there. I listen to it to amuse myself (or with my friends), and use it as a medium to worship and praise the Lord.
