  9. Music also helps people communicate how they feel inside when they just can’t find the words to say it. Sometimes, in our lives, it is difficult to say how we feel to other people, but with music we find the words that are missing and the messages that we are trying to tell people. We all can find the words that we are looking for by either writing songs or just listening to different songs on the radio or anywhere we are. I know when I have trouble finding the words that I want to say to people, I write songs to express how I feel about them or different things in life. Music is important because music helps us find the words we can’t say.

Many people today hide who they are on the inside to try to fit in with everyone else because some people are afraid of being rejected by those around them.
