Music Has Always Been In My Life

Music:

Music has always been in my life. My earliest memory of music in my life is age six. My parents were huge music fans. I express myself through music too.

Memory of Mom and Music:

Old Country and Old Rock and Roll!!  I can hear Loretta Lynn or Donna Fargo and picture my mom cleaning the house…She’s German so the house was always in shape. If I hear Sandy Posey or Tammy Wynette…I think about mom being mad at dad.

Music and Dad:

Speaking of dad…Yeah, Jonny Cash and Meryl Haggard bring back fond memories but Marty Robbin’s song ” My women, My women, My wife” Always sends chills down my spine…that is a song dad would dance with my mom every time they were dancing.

My Parents Taught Me To Express Myself Through Music:

My parents taught me to express myself through music, and I can say with pride that I am a music fan. I express myself through music in a separate way from my parents.

Headphones are used daily. Sometimes to signal I am happy, but I want to be alone, sometimes signals I’m not talking to you. My eyes and body language will tell you all you need to know.

In conclusion:

Music from the ’50s and ’60s is what my parents introduced to their children. Music from the ’70s and ’80s is what I introduced to my children. My grandson is lucky enough to hear all the above and introduce all of us to what becomes his favorites as he explores the future.
