asking for help: there be + noun. I don't know how to write the following sentence correctly.

What should I do? I mean how can I express it approriately?

It is a prerequisite to marriage, otherwise the young girl's mother won't agree her daugher to get married with you. Pathetic! Would anyone help me to find the mistikes in the above sentences? How should I revise to make them more elegant?

Music matters Hello, guys. Nice to meet all of you. I appreciate it if you can do me a favour to correct my grammar or spelling mistakes. Thank you in advance. By the way, we can be good friends if you also love instrumental music. Music is an art which reflects emotions of mankind. It has been along with people from a long time ago , according to historical records. Brisk and lively music is a feast to our ears when we are happy; Soft music relieves one's stress and sad music comforts people's wounded hearts.

My cat There is an old yellow cat in my home. She has been living with us for 11 years so far. She was just one month old when my elder sister brought her home in a plastic bag. How small and weak she was at that time, that she even can't scratch the plastic bag open. I fell in love with her at once. I liked to play games with her and we both had a lot of fun. I seldom went back home after I attend college, sometimes I miss her when I am alone. It was said that cats will go away by themselves when they feel their time is up. When I think of this , I feel more miserable. That's why I spend my time writing this short passage now. Cats are good friends of human. Be kind to them and they will reward you more.
