It’s my birthday week!
Help me celebrate?
A little of what we love? A little of the finer? A little, or maybe a lot, of being thankful for extra blessings, extra gifts?
Being thankful and letting out, maybe, a happy little sigh?
And maybe it’s a little silly, but if you’re in the mood to listen, a few of my favourite things?
Surprises left on the front porch . . .
Hot flaky croissants and a latte . . .
Hanging out the washing to dry (my favourite) . . .
Roses (Thank you, my love) . . .
My favourite song in all the world (I listen to it every birthday. Makes my heart pound every time) . . . Glorious?
And this . . .
And I could count my worries (yeah, I’ve got some). And I could count the things I have to do (and that would take some time).
But counting these instead . . . seeing them all there, where I’ve put them on the page . . .
Not just the gifts, but remembering the Giver . . .
Yes, a happy, happy little sigh.
Blessed.

Hmmm . . . link seems to be working from this end. Perhaps just search Bach – Cello Suite No.1 i-Prelude by Bacholoji on Youtube? 13 million viewers might be wrong, but of course I’m not 😉 It’s wonderful.

Cute. 🙂 Beautiful song … i liked the focus on one guy on cello sharing his love of the music. You Tube has its good things too … that’s one of them.

I’m glad you liked it! Classical music became part of my life when we lived in Scotland and I discovered which composers, instruments, and pieces were my favorite (and which I didn’t actually care for). This piece is the one that struck me more than all others. And yes, you can see that Mischa Maisky, who is playing t ihere, is feeling it too!
