I wake to music in my heart. A bittersweet melody is constantly playing in the background, a music station of my own. Much of my life is spent in the service of the people around me. The background melody sets a beat for my life. This song plays all day, never ending notes.
When I am cooking the melody can be frantic or blissful depending on the urgency of the moment. If you are working with me you may hear me absently humming the various tunes streaming through my mind. I do not realize that this happens, I have been told it is annoying but more often that it is soothing to the people around me. The orchestra within me brings me peace even when the world gives me none.
Much of my day is lonely, even in a crowd of people our music is my friend. The sound inside me reverberates throughout me, resonating the highs and the lows. Many have anxiety within them that eliminates any peace in their soul. A constant voice of worry. I have trouble understanding this level of anxiousness. The music in my soul soothes my beast.
The melody of our lives brings me peace. The beat sets our steps even if walking forward seems to be an impossible task. The rhythmic lines press us towards each other, an embrace that brings us happiness even in the darkest clouds.
Today I have gratitude for our symphony. Our musicians know the songs and play them without sheet music. Everyday the melody plays and we dance.
