A Love For My Family And Music

By Aimee Jones

Nowadays, if you would notice, our surroundings are full of noise. Noise coming from vehicles, people talking or shouting, the sound of a loud television, dogs barking and even fireworks on some occasions. And even if you're sleeping, you can hear car engines still traveling at night or maybe your air conditioner inside your room, they make noises too. Sounds could be irritating or pleasing to our ears, and when we think of music, most of the time it's nice to listen with it.

When I was a kid, my mom would usually tell me stories on how she met my father. My mom performs as a singer, while my dad performs as the drummer in the band.

While growing up, my sister and I would, most of the time listen to the songs that our mom has recorded. My father would then teach us how to sing them properly and even record our own versions as well.

Now, looking back at those times when we were still young made me realize that singing or the music itself is not just for some people create or perform, there has to be feelings in it as well. I remember what my mom told me that whenever she sings this particular song she thinks of me, another song would be for my sister and another for my father. This only means that she thinks of us, her loved ones, and that is the reason why she performs well because it's like dedicating the song to us even if we are not there.

There are times when we as a family would just sit and sing most hours of the day, my father once said that one of his greatest possessions is the ability to make music which he would like us to continue as well. Dad knows how to play guitars, drums and piano, he can sing very well too.

To have music in the family is a great way to spend and enjoy your everyday. You could be the singer or the drummer, the guitarist or the pianist, whatever your interest maybe, it will sure be fun for everyone.

With music around, you can be your self. You may not be the type who wants to create music but for sure, you can always listen. With so many kinds to choose from, you'll definitely find one that can make you think of happy thoughts or memories even make yourself free from stress since music can make your mind relax, especially the classic ones.

I am a music lover. I love my music as I love my family. I can think of them whenever I'm at peace. And music definitely puts my mind at ease. - 18762
