Hello, again! Every one of my visits so far at Best Friends
has been on Friday at music time. I’ve learned that the older generation is a
more refined and classier one. Today, you can still find choirs for youth to
participate in but it seems as though most of our elderly friends’ generation
has nearly perfect pitch and articulation. Could this be because culture and
media was different back then? Perhaps people tried to be more proper and classier
back then.
With Auto Tune, nobody needs actual skill for singing and
the fundamentals are probably neglected. Also, one must remember that church
communities bared a larger significance to community coherence and most elderly
in Kentucky grew up in rural communities because cities like Lexington and
Louisville were less populous and developed then. Church is where a lot of them
learned to interact socially and to sing which could explain why they are all
different and more proper.
With all these differences caused by being exposed to more
of life and a different life, we can all still find similarities. I always thought
that friendship required similarities like common hobbies, cultural and family background,
and demographics but now I am finding that polar opposites can make the best
match. Maybe what they say is true, “Opposites attract.”
