Things To Be Thankful For #5: Music

Last night Mike and I were walking our dog, Teddy, when we came across a piano on the sidewalk.   Yes, a piano was just sitting on the sidewalk (only in New York City, right?).  As we approached it from the back I assumed the keys would be missing, but when we turned to face the front of the piano I saw that the keys were there, and the pedals too!  Obviously I couldn't resist walking over and plunking out a few notes.  The piano wasn't perfectly in tune, but it sounded pretty incredible for a piano on the sidewalk.  Running my fingers along the keys immediately brought a smile to my face, and reminded me just how lucky we are to live in a world that is full of music!  

Isn't it incredible the way that music can instantly change your mood?  Just hearing the first few notes of your favorite song can brighten your day and leave you feeling energized.  Next time you're having lousy day play some tunes and see if that doesn't help to turn things around for you!
