JUST DAVID
I don't know where to post this exactly, so am doing so on this
thread, because it is the one I come to most often, though
I know you all are all over the site.
Somewhere in this thread on a topic I've long forgotten one
of you mentioned a book that exemplified whatever it was
that we were talking about. And I want to thank whoever
it was. I went and bought the book, and when it arrived it
lay here for a number of weeks before I picked it up last
week. I think the cover may have had something to do with
it, as it has a velvet-clothed young boy with fancy lacy collar
on it: a painting by one of the masters, tho' I've seen it before
I do not know who painted it. It sort of turned me off.
Yet I picked up the book a couple days ago and could hardly
put it down. What a message: the orchestra of life, the song
of the day, the old drudges of people who visit and whose
lives were changed by that boy, David and his violins.
I know I will re-read it, (I hardly ever do that) and want
to thank whoever suggested it. I think, that this book, (and
few have ever done this) has changed my outlook on life.
Maybe I needed it at this point in time. Call it fate or destiny
or whatever, but this book came into my life at exactly the
right time. Thank you, whichever one of you suggested it.
