People are so critical of each other these days. Why does it matter how a person dresses or what type of music they like? We base so much off appearances and are too hard-headed to see past the outside and understand what each individual is all about. It is unfair to judge someone on just their exterior, weren't we all taught that as children? Never judge a book by its cover, they told us.
There are various styles of music (pop, rock, country, rap, K-pop, J-pop, whatever) so we could enjoy them, not be critical of the ones that don't appeal specifically to us. And most of the time, we are ashamed to admit that we like a certain type of music, because it is deemed "unpopular" in our society, and we are forced to pretend to only listen to the Top 30. To me, that is one of the sadder things of this world. Why are we prevented from appreciating the beauty of all styles of music just because it might not be common? And if it is common, why do we automatically bash it? You like One Direction, a British boy band? Great, I like Yiruma, a Korean pianist. Let's be friends, you might be cool.
In the end, we are all human, and we all want the same things. Happiness, love, peace. Think about that the next time you open your mouth to criticize someone.
What I am listening to: Are We There Yet - Dumbfoundead
What I am thinking of: maaan, this song...
What I should be doing: my homework, I'm going to be slaughtered
What I want to do: just chill or something, I dunno
