"I began my life as I shall no doubt end it: among books. In my grandfather's study, they were everywhere; it was forbidden to dust them except once a year, before the October term. Even before I could read, I already revered these raised stones..."

Dear Barb, thank you so much for your beautiful message
I’m sorry I didn’t reply earlier. I haven’t been on Bluesky as much as before, so I’m a bit late.
Thank you for your kindness and good wishes.
I wish you a wonderful New Year, filled with peace, health, and many joyful moments.

I've always believed Dvořák’s Humoresque was only about smiles and lightness…
But The Ghost of Salieri reveals a deeper truth behind its playful melody.
Come listen...it might change the way you hear the piece forever.

A new week begins, my friends, another chance to rise, rebuild, and rewrite the story you tell yourself. Walk forward with calm confidence. What you didn’t achieve last week becomes fuel, not failure. What waits ahead belongs to those who move with purpose. Have a powerful week!

Chopin’s Nocturne No. 20 has always fascinated me, not only for its beauty, but for the secret it hides.
The Ghost of Salieri addresses it with elegance and depth, as if uncovering whispers left between the notes.

Each time I hear Für Elise, I feel Beethoven’s spirit whispering through time… and the haunting mystery of the woman he wrote for consumes me.
Was she muse, memory, or regret? Only the notes know the truth."

Every dawn is an invitation to begin again, to believe again, to shine again.

Each of us carries silent battles; moments of doubt, pain, and quiet endurance. But as the week ends, let’s remember this: we made it. We are winners not because life is easy, but because we keep going, one heartbeat, one tear, one sunrise at a time.

My brothers laughed outside, but I stayed in, beside the old radio, completely taken by Valse Sentimentale.
That melody became a part of me.
Years later, I’ve given voice to that same emotion through Salieri’s ghost.

My friends, amid the stillness of stone, she reminds us that beauty is born from calm and contemplation.
As this week comes to a close, may you find a moment to rest your thoughts, hold your dreams gently, like the rose in her hand and trust that peace and strength are already blooming within you.
