Just for fun, this thread is for posting music, art, books, movies etc. that are exhilarating!
Not just uplifting. Not just warm and fuzzy feel-good stuff.
But...exhilarating!
What I mean by that is: It reaches deep down into your psyche and pulls up your pain, and brings it to the surface, where it is healed, and then it takes that transformed energy and fills the heart until it's overflowing and then it goes up up up the higher chakras and out the head!
It builds and builds and builds in intensity until you think it can't go any higher, and then it goes higher still!
You can't stay in a bad mood when you experience such art...it has transformative properties.
And you feel yourself bubbling over with joy...and send it out into the world because you can't contain it.
