Headphones

Do you ever see people with headphones in and wonder what they are listening to. It could literally be anything. Trying to figure this out could become extremely superficial, because if you do not know the person, you could be stereotyping their music by the way they dress. Regardless, it can become a fun game. The person strolling down the street could be listening to hardcore rap or classical music. The world may never know. I have always wanted to ask random people what they are listening to. I think one can find out quite a bit about a person from what kind of music they listen to (without any negative connotation added.) Just because someone listens to rap does not mean that they do drugs everyday and someone who listens to classical music isn't "weird." Music is such a pivotal thing in out society. It really helps people through tough times. That stranger in the headphone could be listening to some pump up jams to just get through the day. Hell, I encourage you to ask a random person what they are listening to. It can either allow you to learn about a new musician or connect with someone based on music taste. YOU COULD EVEN HAVE A DANCE PARTY TO THEIR MUSIC IN THE STREET.

Okay, now that might be a little extreme, but it would be extremely fun. Next time you see someone with headphones in, create a story about the music you think you're listening to. Just run with it. Never let your mind stop wandering;
