Most of the time I am simply doing finger exercises, another form of piano practice without the beautiful tones. Sometimes, however, I receive a gift, reminding me of the gifts in my life.

Whether I like my room or not doesnt depend on how the furniture is arranged… its how I arrange my mind. I have already decided to love it. Its a decision I make every morning when I wake up.
