Wow!
A studpendous thunderstorm, a bright rainbow and a firey sunset all in one night! The slow heavy rain soaked in deep (we needed it!) and the rainbow was visible from horizon to horizon--then the sunset made it look like the view from the front door was on fire! It was bee-yoo-tiful.
I am continually amazed at the emotional power of music. Whether it's bagpipes, a capella choir, fiddle, classical guitar, opera, orchestral or so many others...excellent recordings (and live performances!) of these leave me speechless every time, and often change my mood in a split second. Perhaps that's a reason for me to be extremely careful with the music I love so much...it could make me quite the emotional rollercoaster, and what girl needs more of that?! Hehe...but I hope that power never loses it's effect on me. The day that music no longer moves me will, I hope, be the day I die.
I'm sitting on the couch next to the piano...such a loverly piano :) thanks to Dr. Mays' help in choosing it! When I'm done with the next thing on my list (posting on my blog was of course not on the list, hehe) I'm going to play for a while. Night is the best time for it. Or early in the morning...but people in the house don't usually appreciate that :) Anyway...I turn the lights down low, practice Christmas music, play slow Bach pieces, play Legends of the Fall, Lord of the Rings...and sometimes just try and work out some melodies I like. It's very cathartic...
