Music

I  was observing how music is a great key to learn and understand about other cultures. Music allow us to trespass the barriers of communications and understanding with cultures around the world. It can be used to connect with others. The world is in chaos and turmoil, there is seem to be so much hatred against each other. I am not saying that music will end the problems in the world but I believe that is a way in which we can learn more about each other as human beings. It can be a way to learn and understand where we come from. It would be nice if we can look at each other as human beings instead of where we come from, countries and places should not dictate how people treat us. It is believed that music brings the best in us,  we should learn about people and their cultural background through music so we can better understand what thoughts and dreams they wish for. When children are in school and they study other cultures they tend to have a preconception of such cultures or they might  have none, these believes come from their families believes,  some are very welcoming and accepting, if we introduced these cultures in another way then, they might have their own opinions and ideas. This is when music could come into place to introduce certain culture without being bias of such. This will allow these children to view these cultures in a completely different way. Music is not the complete answer to our international problems, but it can be a way to change our thoughts and miss conceptions towards each other.
