I have always been the type of person who must listen to music. I grew up dancing and I always assumed that was why music seemed like such a necessity to me because I was surrounded by it, but I also grew up as a child with parents who danced around the house to it. From cooking to cleaning to driving, to dancing, to concerts and homework and working out, merely every occasion in my life involved and currently involves music.

While many lean towards a certain genre, or still to only country music, or only reggae, I literally listen to every form of music, from the bizarre to the pop, to the even more bizarre. I have to blame the wide genre's more on dance because that definitely gave me a passion for all sorts of music, listening more in-depth to the rhythms and the lyrics. Don't let me lead you to believe I ever succeeded at playing an instrument, reading music or singing, however, those things have never been and will probably never be my strong suit. Doesn't mean I can't hold strong value for it however, it's impacted us currently and historically in major ways.

If these five reasons aren't enough to get you to start listening to music on the daily, then Google it! There are a ton more reasons that music has proven to be beneficial to your everyday life and future. These five are just the most beneficial to mine and I can only hope they make you at a little more music to your life for your own health.
