Today I am thankful for music. For the calming music on Dog TV that I stream for the puppy. For the classical music that my mom used to play, and the Broadway tunes, and the top 40's of my youth. For the music of my son's generation, which are now starting to be considered oldies.
I am thankful for this non-verbal form of communication across the generations. Listening to the music of another generation or understanding the history of the era in which it was initially produced can bring insight into why grandma kept playing the Big Band records (or why I fall back on Beatles and Beach Boys, Simon and Garfunkel, or The Eagles).
Music can make us relive our lives in memory!
Ember is thankful mom's starting to reintroduce the couch as a place to nap! At least until she starts fussing with the slip covers and couch protectors, then she has to go back into her doggy containment areas.Life is Good. Keep Sparking!
