Beethoven - "Sonata No. 8 Op. 13 (Pathetique)"

Welcome Home!

Have you missed me? Well I’ve certainly missed you. The past 2 and half months have been a wild and wonderful ride for us. Large ups and Major downs and the world seems somehow to continue spinning madly on.

Yet, despite all of the frustration and guilt for having not posted, like the ballet barre, I come back here to find center.

As I drove to work, to start my new job, and continue to advance my life I felt an overwhelming sense that I’d let go of the blog, let go of the music, let go of the passions I once held so dear. The truth however, is simply that I was letting my passion rest to give myself space and time to pursue other avenues of joy. Passions, like any muscle, need to be exercised vigorously, but also rested.

So now, after a lengthy rest and time to consider where, why, and how, I have come home, with a new home, to continue the daily meditation, inspiration, and revelations of my Songs (and sometimes Poems) of the Day.

So today, with hearts full of the measured cups of life’s joy and terror, I choose Beethoven’s breathtaking “Sonata No. 8 Op. 13 (Pathetique)” as my, with all the majesty and squalor, with the bliss and despair, with the hope and regret, song for a, welcome back, here and there again, the earthly chain to the heavenly crown Tuesday.
