Sitting at my computer I was trying to think about what to write for my next blog entry. As I sat there doing a different assignment listening to my IPOD I realized music is a means of communication that I definitely could easily relate to. I thought about the many different ways I use music in a way of communicating with others.
To begin with, listening to music with friends and just singing along to words that are probably not right, lead to growing bonds with friends. The true friends that I have are the ones that I can sing out loud and in my friends’ heads sing obnoxiously with. Those friends that I can sing obnoxiously to are the ones that I best communicate with. They are the ones that I turn to when I need guidance in my life. Also, those same friends are the ones that will go to the concert with me and make memories that will last forever.
Coming from a large family there is always different tastes in music amongst my parents, brothers, and sisters. Fortunately, my mom likes a variety of music, so if I want to listen to what I like she will also like it. However, when my dad is in the car, all of my brothers and sisters know that music will not even be heard, but instead the sports station will be on. He cannot stand any of the music that teenagers listen to. Then, there is a huge fight between the siblings. Some like country, some like rap, there is always an argument. Although, those little arguments build us closer to one another because we learn to communicate and compromise in order to make everyone happy. Before one knows it everyone in the car is singing and having a good old time. To bad the voices of my family overpower the song.
It’s amazing how music tells people a lot about peoples relationships with other people. Listening to music is a very relaxing activity and sharing it with people significant in my life is important. I know then that I am in a comfortable situation.
