A NEW Beginning

Knitting Kermit has done something to me internally. Like a rebirth of mind-thought. (is that one word?) Out with the old and in with the new. Upwards and onwards... and all that. Maybe I'm listening to way to much Mozart. If just for a few minutes listen to "Adagio in A major" That piece speaks to me like no other piece of music. It simply reads: "A Death has occurred but those left behind must keep going. The dips in and out of emotion are to be expected but one must persevere" Didn't Mozart lose several of his children? He truly captured the heart ache and grief with-in this piece. Music and me don't have a big relationship. Yah I learned to play the violin at a young age...but never kept with it and I know few souls who LIKE to go to symphonies other than myself. Yet I draw the line of dressing to the nines to go alone. So I am a closet orchestra fan. Or worse yet... James Last.Yah. I own all his albums and get deep into a German sing along on occasion-to the point of actually trying to learn the language- How this brain of mine knows how to knit is beyond me, cause it sure can't comprehend any other languages. Knitting and music are the perfect marriage. With any crisis, be it a knock-me-down illness, a how-am-going-to-PAY-for that? or a death in the family... sitting with yarn and some loud orchestra HELPS to make it all better, if just momentarily. On this Lovely day in October I begin life again. A new beginning.
