Lockdown 455

Lockdown Day 455- 24 June 2021

Yesterday, while doing the rounds for the Glühwein, I stopped at a beautiful garden nursery. Parking underneath the tall gum trees already lifted my spirit, but the next moment I stopped in my tracks.

In front of me was a water feature made from an old piano. Yes, you read correctly : a piano. The water was coming out of it, running over where the keys would have been. I went closer. There was an inscription on it saying, "There's music in water, if you stop to listen."

The sun was dancing all over this piano, hidden in a lush little garden of Eden. I thought of the famous August Rush quote, "The music is all around us. All you have to do is listen."

I associate the music with nature and this piano was just the perfect synchronisation between the two. This felt as if God was talking to my heart using His creation.

To look for God's music in everything is a wonderful way of constantly drawing our thoughts back to what's really important, especially now.

I close tonight with another less known quote from August Rush:

" You know what music is? God's little reminder that there is something else besides us in this universe, a harmonic connection between all living beings everywhere, even the stars. " As the full moon lights up the clouds outside my window, I am sure if I listen closely, I will be able to hear the music of Heaven.
