"Melody is a gift of god", my teacher said once. I believe
that is
 absolutely true and life without melody is like a meal with no salt. Tune has been our life partner since it was 'born'. It helps
people
 in a number of ways,
such
 as reducing
stress
 levels, making them entertaining and so on. But I agree that the most essential function of
music
 is lessening
stress
. Nowadays
stress
 is getting more problematic for
people
 in society.
Although
stress
 is the response of our body to external pressure in order to adjust and overcome it, it causes some trouble if it exists longer.
Stress
 is caused by many factors,
for instance
, moving to a new country, illness, and breaking up that
happen
Change the verb form
happens
show examples
 in activity.
As a result
 of
stress
, we have psychological problems,
such
 as depression, and isolation. Fortunately,
music
 is able to protect us from
this
 dilemma. It makes us relaxed and calm when we listen, due to the fact that
music
 sends signals to our brains. The findings of the survey that was conducted by the Mental Health centre show most
people
 usually listen to
music
 when they are stressed out. They say that because it ameliorates the bad situation. Some
people
 argue that
that is
 not the most essential function of
music
, whereas making
people
 energetic and entertained must be the most important thing in listening to
music
.
However
,
music
 cannot make us happier to live, can it? To conclude,
music
, which is our helpful life partner, can support us to escape from hard situations.
This
 is miraculous, is not it?
