What Music Taught Me About Life: Comping

In music there is a concept called COMPING.
I think it teaches us something about life.

Comping (short for 'accompanying') is where an instrument like a piano or guitar plays a simple pattern that fills out the background of a song.  Like many things we all do, its a necessary thing that will never be fully appreciated by those who listen.  

Over that comping pattern, a singer can sing or lead guitar can rip an amazing solo.  But that singer and that lead guitar would not sound so amazing without someone comping for them.

Life Lessons Learned:
-Life's not all about you (or me).
-Life is a team sport, and everyone has a time to shine.
-Who can you support in their efforts today?
-How can you help them have a moment to shine?
-What if you spent more of your time supporting others in this way?
