Hello Readers,
Today what is going through my mind that I would like to share with you is music. Music is a big part of people today. Music can help a person go through different phases of their life. I tend to listen to all types of music. Each style has its own feeling towards it. I always listen to music based on the mood that I am currently in. Today for example is a Taylor Swift day; I am listening to her because of events that are going in my life at the moment and she is the girl to listen to when you have love trouble. Most of the time however, I tend to listen to Country and Avril Lavigne. I know two completely different genre of music. To me country is the type of music I can listen to in any mood. There are songs about love, revenge, having a good time, and so many other types of moods. Avril I listen to when I feel rebellious and just needing a good old time. She also has some really good songs about losing someone also.
Everyone has their own uniqueness when it comes to music I have realized. Two people could listen to the exact same song, but get two different meanings to it. My sister and I have done this with the Frozen song “Let it Go.” To me the song hits a personal piece and reminds me that it is okay to show the world who I really am. My sister on the other hand I think she likes it because it is a fun song and it is something we do together. That brings to a point of how music can bond people. With my brother he and I are two very different people, but one artist we enjoy together is Eminem. I am not sure if it is the lyrics or the beat, but we tend to bond when listening to him. I have noticed that when I attend a concert everyone seems nicer and gets along. I like to believe it is the fact that it is everyone coming to have a good time and enjoy the music. I see smiles on faces and I feel an energy that I am not even sure how to describe. If you have not gone to a concert yet I highly recommend going to at least one in your life time.
Now I’m going to wrap up this session of Cassie’s Thoughts, but I am going to leave you with a couple of quotes about music to really think about. Maybe it’ll even open your mind a bit more than it already is.
Music can change the world because it can change people. - Bono
I think music in itself is healing. It's an explosive expression of humanity. It's something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we're from, everyone loves music. - Billy Joel
