Happy Birthday, Wolfgang!
There is a God. For all the tragedy and senseless waste cluttering history, every so often beauty and genius are aligned. Mozart didn't have an easy life, but his short time here left us with evidence of the sublime, which lives beyond our quotidian understanding. What a magnificent gift.

I'm listening to symphony #41 in C Major, "Jupiter" as I type!
