I love the power of music to lift the spirits. On another day, I would probably head to the stereo and put on K. D. Lang’s Hallelujah and let her voice carry me up, over, and beyond.  Most likely I would put on Sachmo’s What a Wonderful World. His raspy voice is as beautiful and stirring as K.D.’s. I could very well sing, sway and dance along with Miss Carol Channing, Well hello Dolly, well hello Dolly…

However, today I am putting on the quiet, listening to the music of silence.  I am listening to the colours of the rainbow around me. It is so strengthening for the heart and soothing to the soul.  The whole orchestra is playing.  Hear the joy.
