Thank you, Mozart.

I'm listening to Mozart piano sonatas today. And that has me thinking. About how wonderful it is to live in the modern age. If I had lived 100 years ago, the only way for me to hear Mozart would have been to go to a live concert. Now I have hundreds of compact discs that allow me to listen to virtually everything that Mozart composed. I can even walk or ride my bicycle, and listen to Mozart. Amazing. Amazing. Amazing. Mozart gives me another reason to appreciate life. To feel blessed. That I'm alive. I wonder if Mozart ever stopped to think that he'd be speaking to the likes of me in the year 2012. Thank you, Mozart. --Jim Broede
