This is a re-welcome to my blog. I know for the past couple months I kind of fell off the face of the Earth, but not to worry I am still alive and doing well. Over the summer I was busy almost everyday with softball, summer assignments, babysitting, and vacations to L.A, Santa Cruz, and camping. This blog is all about music, all the different types, messages, and effects; that are represented through music.
One thing I love about music is that the lyrics mean something to people, musicians who write them are people too who have been through some of the same problems as us. A problem that is facing humans and always has been is that in society there are boxes and everyone is supposed to be a certain way to fit in this box. In reality that's not right or true, no two people are the same in their morals or DNA. It is not smart as a group to make others feel bad for not fitting in the box, or for that matter having boxes.
People are most often ridiculed on their appearance. We are told that our clothes, hair, nails, ideas, personalities, makeup (or lack thereof), and our sizes are not right. Who are we to tell others that being themselves is not right? As a society I vote that we throw out the idea of these boxes, of how we want people to look and behave. The biggest reason for this is because its not real, people were not meant to be put into a category, they were meant to be themselves and blossom
These songs are ones I picked about being yourself and being positive about it. They talk about how to be brave and embrace who you are. About not letting mean things that people say affect you. About liking and embracing how you look, because you are beautiful.
