The other day I happened to read a column in the Chicago Tribune written by Garrison Keillor. The title of the column intrigued me – “Uplifting gift, from one heart to another.” Little did I know that I would find my candy early that Sunday morning on the printed page.
Mr. Keillor described his experience at a party. He claimed he normally would not attend such functions because of the boring talk of getting old. At this event he met a young lady who sat down at the piano and played the Chopin Prelude No. 2 in A Minor so exquisitely it transformed the entire evening.
Mr. Keillor went on to say…”(the Chopin Prelude) simply is an extravagant gift from the heart of a girl to the hearts of whoever is standing nearby. Life is good, no matter the disappointments—O God, the disappointments. Just square your shoulders and give them your utter best.”
Thank you Mr. Garrison Keillor for the tastiest of my daily candy.
Ciao
