Music is extremely pleasant - even for people who find themselves not particularly fond of it. It has a chance to relax the mind and body along with generate positive energy. Music, as some research has revealed, boosts the production of serotonin, which is accountable for the feel-good sensation in you. This is why many workplaces where they have strenuous work, introduced soft-playing vocals. The results were amazing even though improvements were expected. Productivity went up by the huge margin and absenteeism dropped. The inter-collegial relationship improved and overall the atmosphere of such workplaces improved considerably. As a direct result of those changes, staffing turnover also came down and with it the charge in training and orienting personnel of their jobs. This picture amazingly captures the think layer of clouds over the valley nearby the south of Lake Como, northern Italy. In the above image, the dense cloud hides almost the valley leaving some artificial lights that will make the location like an opaque blanket. The village over distance is clearly seen out from the blanket. Flickr: Danny O
