Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech
Here is my current formula for joy: I put on the CD of the soundtrack from "Babe" and sing along with the song the farmer sings to Babe about making a day golden and true. My heart soars, I begin dancing, just as the farmer does in the movie, and I sing loud enough to shake the house. Yesterday I was grumpy all day, so I began today with the CD, and played it through at least three times, once while babysitting my one year old grandson and dancing him on my knees. I guarantee you it will lift your spirits and remind you what art and music and film can do: put us in touch with our deepest, richest feelings like joy or sorrow or wonderment or love. Today my gratitude goes to my working stereo system that has brought me so much music and the comfort it provides.
