What Music Are You?

We all have our own music but there is no guarantee anyone will buy it. ~Unknown

Our lives are our music, everything we do, all our actions, all our words are notes in a symphony that plays out with every breath we take.  We have every right to play our own music, every right to dance to the drum beat we hear, every right to move as the rhythms of the music carry us, every right for our soul to express itself in the music we feel.

While we have every right to sing the words of our life song, there is no requirement that others enjoy the music they see as we walk down the street, that others even take the time to listen to our music.

And that is OK for not all tastes are alike nor are all tastes compatible. This is not a judgement on your music, not a judgement on you. It is simply a personal preference. A preference that has as much right to exist as does your right to be a unique musical style. It is this difference that makes each of us a unique song. It is this difference that embodies the grand diversity of each soul.

So, do me the courtesy of not judging me for the music I choose to listen to you in the same way I don't judge you by the music your life sings. I say, dance to your own music, revel in the music your soul sings to the world, continue to create the rhythms that define who you were, who you are, who you aspire to be. Just don't expect everyone to appreciate your symphony. It should be enough that the artist creates his own, is true to her own unique life song.
