Music

Music is the hand that rocks the cradle.
It gives us a steady, rhythmic tempo to set the pace of our lives.
It makes us feel all warm and fuzzy, even in the bleakest of times.
It gives us confidence, because the songs of long ago still resound today.
The lyrics can make us laugh, or cry, or just feel wonderful.
Each of us has a song to contribute, that others may enjoy the day.

Have you played your note today?
Don't wait! Do it now!
