First off, I must apologiz...@Jeremy David Carlisle<br /><br />First off, I must apologize for not answering you sooner. I did not see this until just now. I'm going back in my blog and picking up any stray comments I may have missed, looking to see if there are any odd numbers of comments. I am heartily sorry for the delay.<br /><br />I do have my bleak periods; I suppose if you live long enough, it's bound to happen. I also inherited my ear and perfect pitch from my father and it's very easy for me to get lost in music; as a matter of fact, I need it and always have needed to surround myself with it. <br /><br />Obviously, loss is something that everyone has to deal with in their lives, one way or another. This hasn't been a great year for my dear friend Alex and me. We've lost two friends within a relatively short span of time, and both were unexpected. But, one of the ways we always honor a loss is by living our lives as fully as we know how, and if we feel a lack in our lives, we must strive to find a way to fill that need. Both of my folks are long gone, but I can look back on the gifts they left me and laugh about the things that we did together and marvel at what they taught me. So, Jeremy, you're on the right track. A wonderful Sibelius piece for you is the Sibelius Violin Concerto. See if you can find a version with Maxim Vengerov playing violin. He is a superb player and it's a gorgeous piece! Thank you, my friend for the advice; it's greatly appreciated!

Secondly, l...Firstly, I am so sorry for your loss. Secondly, loosing someone so close gives us time to reflect. It's up to us to choose what we reflect on. Yes, mostly we think of what we have lost. I will say that this can also be a time, to think of what you gain out of the loss. What memories and gifts they left behind for you.<br /><br />My father passed away four years ago from an aggressive cancer. Even though it was a tough loss, I think about what he left behind for me. He was a very talented musician. Because of the genes that were passed on to me, I am able to play by ear. I try my best to keep his legacy in music going every time I pick up that viola. I think of him everytime I hear his favorite piece, Sibelius "Finlandia" or any Sibelius piece for that matter. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing your thoughts and I look forward to future posts. I hope my feedback finds you well.<br /><br />Have a great weekend!<br />JDC<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01538295235675071127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4044142491333444735.post-75700613835183548462016-01-08T10:03:39.283-05:002016-01-08T10:03:39.283-05:00@Pat.
Thank you so much for visiting and for the ...@Pat.<br /><br />Thank you so much for visiting and for the words of encouragement. I think you are one of the loveliest people I have run across in many a year! I am working on investigating and publishing my memoirs, plus, I have an idea for a "novel serialization" that will incorporate part of my life and also be part fiction and will be for fun.<br /><br />As to the bitterness? I don't write about the ex out of bitterness, but as a comeuppance. He knows what he is, and I will remind him of that. When I don't write about him, he's not in my head, but I damn sure know that I am in HIS and that is his cross to bear. That is what a Wallace does. Long story; dating back to 1297 or there about.<br /><br />I hope that your New Year is beyond all of your expectations, for you surely deserve it. You have a light shining about you and you stand out as a beacon of all that is wonderful and good in life. Thank you so much for visiting. <br /><br />I had planned on two more posts this week, but some of the Einsteins in da 'hood tried to hack my FioS, which is unhackable. I was left without any innerwebz, phone or tv for two critical days. It gave me a chance to do a ton of practicing and catch up on some reading. All the best, my dear, and thank you again!

You have had some trial...Hello and Happy New Year!<br /><br />You have had some trials this year and I feel where you are. And I also know it is difficult to get up and turn that around but I believe you can. Take a day at time or even an hour at time. You wrote about publishing an e-book. Then start investigating, researching and finding out what needs to be done for your e-book to come out. <br /><br />Finally, I believe that everything we dish out will come back to us. So, your ex-husband will get his and it will happen when he least expect it. So let go of the bitterness and keep on marching. You can do it. <br /><br />I wish you all the best and much success in 2016.<br />Shalom,<br />PatriciaPat Garciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04204650731843984192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4044142491333444735.post-50885695538180527502016-01-05T20:22:18.864-05:002016-01-05T20:22:18.864-05:00Alex, you're such a kind person and you've...Alex, you're such a kind person and you've been amazingly supportive. It has been a joy to be part of the fellowship in these writing circles and with that encouragement I've taken a small leap from the fictional cliff. Thank you for all of the encouragement and kindnesses along the way. This is a fun ride!ViolaFuryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05796592763194795436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4044142491333444735.post-46735840854745224212016-01-05T17:44:27.727-05:002016-01-05T17:44:27.727-05:00Sorry about so much crap in your life.

But from the words you've written, you are obviously a survivor and overcomer.<br />You should put those posts together as a book. They would touch others.<br />And I bet you could write fiction. If I managed to come up with a few, you'll write something amazing.Alex J. Cavanaughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09770065693345181702noreply@blogger.com
