Photo & “Connector” are this week’s choices for Eugi’s Weekly Prompt.

Music is the connector of generation to generation. It’s the bridge that closed gaps in communication. It’s the path taken to our hearts, minds, and souls.. to create a better “us”. In all that exists, music plays a major role.

With Love and Light
