One thing about music is that it gives life and makes lifeless lives come alive, I have not in my entire life seen a place where music is being played without life, even if the place is dull or lifeless, music will bring it back to live with it lyrics and rythm. Music is such an integral part of human life that, when not there, will make life dry and society sober. Music is a source of joy and it brings joy to individuals.
Routine on the other hand, is the daily activities one engages in. Though, we all have our daily routine, like to some, they engage in buy and selling, these sets are known to be business people and their daily activity is to buy and sell, some pray everyday, so, there daily activities is prayer. For this fact, there's nobody without he or her daily activities, it's all depends on how and the ways it's being carried out by the individual that make up the society.
Without saying much and going by this week afri-inleo prompt about what my musical daily routine looks like, I will start by saying that my own daily musical routine is not that complex or complicated but simple as ABC, when I say simple as ABC, it means it's simple because music is already part of me and I'm also into music, so, for this reason, it makes it much easier for me as a routine than any other thing and this is because, music gives me life.
So, back to the main point of the prompt and like I said earlier, whenever I wake up everyday as a living soul, the first thing that I do personally is to sing unto my maker whom by his power I'm still living, so, the first of my daily musical routine is to sing unto the lord with my sonorous voice, thanking him for making me to see the breaking of another day, after that, we move to our family alter where we sing praises unto God. Thank God we have the keyboard and other instruments which we use every morning with our voices to sing praises and at the same time worship unto God who has made every member of our family to see the beautiful day, infact, in our family, I'm the family keyboardist and for this reasons, I love playing hymnal on the keyboard and seriously I wish you people join us in praising God with our voices and instruments. It's always lively and we always look forward to every morning to give praises to God through our voices and my talent of playing keyboard or the piano. So, singing praises to God very early in the morning with my voice and using the keyboard and other musical instruments like tambourine and the bell has always and will always be my first musical routine while I'm still alive.

So, afterwards, the next phase of my daily musical routine is listening to music. Listening and mastering of other musical work has been my love and as a result of this, after the morning praises unto our maker, my next point of call is to listen to as many as possible different genres of music, but it's all depends on my mood, atimes, when I'm not in a good mood and when things are not going the way it should be, I do listen to good inspirational music, so, listening to good music with my earpiece or earpods on is my another daily musical routine and this has always been my best moment, how do I do this? Like I have just said that music gives me life, so, for my day to be a fruitful one, I do play and listen to good music, now, it might be at the background of whatever thing I'm doing, for instance, if after the morning, I'm to do the house chore, i will not let the house chore disturb my music and that's why I play it at the background, using my earpiece or earpods, while also doing the house chores. Not only this, even when I'm at work, or on my way to work, I do listen to music even in my car, all these my listening to music has always given me life and inspiration. Apart from giving me life and inspiration, listening to music as my daily routine has seriously helped me in developing my musical skill and I can say I have tremendously improved on my skill through the mastering of others work. Such skill I have developed are, my skill in playing the guitar, piano even the african talking drum, as if that's not enough, I have been able to train my voice and even compose my own work via my listening to others musical work. Seriously, this my daily routine of listening to music as really being of blessing to me. Though, a routine, but on the other way round, a blessing and this is one of the thing that has always helped me while playing my piano either at the family devotion or in the public, maybe at church or any other public functions. So, listening to music throughout the day is one of my daily routines.
Also, back to the night when going to bed, another family devotion has always help me to sing unto the lord my maker, for seeing me through the evil of the day and not only that, for his immense blessing towards me and my family and as a result, I and my family at night do praise and worship through songs and hymns and this as always being our daily routine, so, every night at 8pm, after the day's work, we sing praises to God for his goodness and wonderful works in our lives and after that, while in bed, I lay on my bed with my blues music on. Music has always accompanied me to bed and that's how it will be forever. So, music is my everyday routine and it's from morning till night. Not only that, I listen to all genres of music, being it gospel, jazz, reggae, pop, Fuji, apala just mention the genre and I will tell you I have listened to all. Music is life, try to make it a lifestyle, why? It's become my own lifestyle and partner.

You triggered the memory of those days I just wake up and I sing all through until I get distracted by activities. I need to revive that spirit honestly.
I don't know why I love that keyboard instrument so much but I don't know how to play. I can imagine the moment, playing your keyboard and singing alone, ah.. heaven on earth...
Yes ooo
