Country Western Music Is Not For Everybody To Like

I could simply think that everyone appreciates music to a certain point. Each of us has their ideas. We begin forming likes and dislikes from a very early age. Several of our opinions are formed because of our own experiences and others we get based on what we hear from the people around us. Children readily pick up what the adults around them are saying. This is the reason why most family members belong to the same political party and practice the same religion; it is what they grew up with. A lot of what we care comes from what we saw as kids. At times we discover that we modify our opinion on something that we have experienced for ourselves because the opinion was based on what we were taught instead of from personal experience.

In the family I was raised in, my daddy wanted to have things calm. He worked very hard at his job running a ranch so when he sat down for the evening he did not like a lot of noise or activity going on near him. We could have the television on low or he would put on albums of classical music. It was the only music he would permit. If we had the radio on and country western music or rock and roll would play, he would tell us to turn it off. He did not appreciate rock and roll and he thought countrywesternmusic was a sport.

I was exposed to rock and roll through my acquaintances, radio and dances and like it. I did not listen to country western music at all. I held my father's view of it. Then I began dating a young man in college that listened to countrywesternmusic all the time. He liked the beat of the music and the tales that most of the songs told.

I truly liked him so when we began going out I put up with the music and tuned it out. We then went to a large outdoor dance where performed several of the most popular country western musicians. From there I was captivated. I realized that I also liked the stories the songs told and the music was amusing to dance to. At the outdoor dance event met a lot of my boyfriend's acquaintances. They taught me how to line dance to some of the songs. After college I moved to another region and so I lost touch with my boyfriend. Eventually I married my current husband and we are raising our family. I still listen to all kinds of music, but each time I hear country western music I look back to that concert and how I started to like it. I make an effort to let my kids experience many different things when they grow up and try not to influence their opinions.
