2. It's amazing how something as simple and unexpected as classical music can be a soothing balm for a wounded heart. Don't you worry, typical heartbreak. It is so very difficult to end a relationship to a good man, a worthy man, that you know in your heart of hearts... he's just not the right fit. At least at this time. Who knows what the future will hold, but I realized that you marry the man who he is today, not something you hope he will become in the future. Though I know I did the wounding to the both of us, it still can significantly hurt. And so I was listening to a TED talk where a violinist started to play, and it was like instant water to desert soil. No joke. Needless to say, I was completely shocked; it stopped me dead in my tracks as I was cleaning the house. I tested it out with Brahms, Mozart, Handel, Bach, even Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. The only one that was a definite nope was Orff's O Fortuna. Offenbach's Barcarolle was especially soothing. And so I am very grateful for this new discovery of classical music soothing a soul.
