Pity blogs do not carry music, or at least I don't know how to add it, because I would have added Luciano's version of this Pourquoi me revellier taken straight from Massenet's Werther. This is dramatic opera at it's best full of romance, love... and wait for it.... thoughts of suicide. Which reminds me, the first time I actually played Werther... totally wrong timing back then, but not now. It is so beautiful to see how people heal when they thought they would never heal. The human being is such a wonderfully made thing, the human heart being a really dark forest. And then you realise there really is a God, and you realise that through it all, when you thought you were at your weakest, you were actually at your strongest. You also realise that God does not lash out more than we can take, and that means you are a tower of strength. Ok maybe an emotional tower of strength, but then, if we didn't have hearts, wouldn't it be a cold damp place, a world full of robotic aliens?
Sometimes I sit and wonder and am thankful that God has given me the power to actually know music, to feel it, breathe it, live it, to the limit. Because there really is a God who actually watches me while I sleep, live and do everything. Sadness, sometimes a type of sadness hits you, a poignant sadness which almost doesn't let you breathe, but then if we didn't know this type of sadness how could we feel joy and happiness, the type of which also doesn't let you breathe?
So perhaps it's to do with the dynamics of life.... stil feeling this has to be one of the best things in life...Pourquoi me revellier?
