Today I went to a children's piano recital. It was wonderful.
As I sat there and watched dozens of kids play their hearts out for their mothers, father and grandparents, I almost wept. I feel sorry for the many fathers who couldn't make it to see their children's performances. They were fantastic.
Whenever I hear this sort of music performed by skilled children, I think these things:
*Music is truly a gift from god.
*My purpose in life is not to make money but to make my family happy
*I'm going to die someday and I want to enjoy these times as much as I can while I can.
*Too many fathers are missing out on what is really important in life

"How is it that everybody can understand and relate to music? Whether you come from this culture or that culture or any culture, it doesn't matter. It's wonderful. The true language of the human spirit is music." (John McLaughlin.)
