As I was practicing my cello today, I was thinking about life, my future, etc. This tends to happen often when you are drilling the same 4 measures for 50 minutes or so. As I was thinking, I realized that I am excited to find new adventures in life. I have been scared to leave for college for a long time, and I think I am finally beginning to look forward to it. I have been working hard through high school with my grades and music, and it has all been focused on this--college. Now it's finally here! All of my hard work has paid off in scholarships and experience. I have gained so much from pursuing good grades and a talent on the cello. My instrument brings me more joy than I can express in words. I know for a surety that there is so much beautiful music on this earth that would not be here had God not placed melodies into the heads of Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Liszt, etc. Music is POWERFUL, and I get to study it in college; that will be my homework! All of my work has finally paid off, and I can at last see the light at the end of my tunnel. :) I will miss my friends who are leaving, but BYU isn't an eternity away from USU.
Well said my beautiful and wonderful granddaughter, well said.
