Beautiful and so true. Music was the only solace - and mostly hymns from my childhood church - songs of love and peace. Music seems to always find itself in the middle of immense tragedy- the Sarajevo cellist, the pianist at the Bataclan in Paris came to bring solace and healing. Yo Yo Ma's rendition of Gabriel's Oboe is my favorite.

Oh, Kathy. We take heartbreak as it comes, and music is always available to soothe us, to open us, to remind us we are part of something much large than ourselves and that we are not alone and that, in fact, we are all one. What a precious thing that is. Thank you for this.
