The Power of Love

Yesterday was one of those days when I did not have a moment to sit down, reflect and write.  Even so, it was a most beautiful day.

Once a month I play at a very busy cancer center.  Those in charge have me play an hour in the waiting room and another hour in the infusion rooms.  There must have been 60 or more patients and support people awaiting treatment yesterday when I arrived.  Fear and anxiety and sadness hung heavy in the air.  Staff scurried about.  I took a breath and began to play, sending out love with every note.  Within minutes the atmosphere cleared—people were smiling and even humming along.  Shoulders relaxed, people took deep, cleansing breaths, staff slowed down and now glided from room to room.
