LIFE IS LIKE A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT

Each person is given a life to live. How we live it depends on many aspects- geography, family, culture, education, gender, health and position in the family, i.e. oldest, youngest, middle, only boy, only girl! Sometimes we are able to make choices about how to proceed. In a democracy like Canada, the choices are not necessarily endless but are much better than other parts of the world. So if you were a musical instrument, what kind of instrument would you be! Would you stand alone or want to be part of a group or orchestra? Do you like recognition and want to be in public? Or are your accomplishments personal and you want your privacy? Perhaps you need to ponder the questions? Considering there are many different instruments. Some are reflective of the country. Even drums change depending on the environment. Remember the beginning of the Sydney Olympics and the drummers from around the world. So the same instrument can change depending on the person. Some instruments play loudly and others are soft!   Some are big and others can be carried under your arm! The music made by some is beautiful and others is just noisy! Lastly, life would be a little dull without music!
