Simple pleasures –– simple lists. Post your list of little things that make you happy in a world where there is often something to be sad about. This can also be a place for you to just rag about things that are a drag!

It's actually Samual Barber's Adagio Op. 11 for strings
Another one is Albinoni's Adagio in G Minor. Also "to the core".
Thanks Sally. I'll tune in.
Albinoni....oh yes. That's a classic "mover" for the heart strings!
Maybe "tugger" of the heart strings is a better way to say it?
Another one that always chokes me up is the last bit of Berlioz's Damnation of Faust. Joe and I heard it performed live and the last movement (the children's chorus) was over, we looked at each other...we were both in tears!!
Wow, thanks Sally and Betsy, cried a bucket of tears, with that recommendation!
Gee Hope... glad (?) we could... make ... you... er... cry...??
Crying is cathartic and cleansing for me
How well I know about that! Now you have more ammunition in your stash, in case you need to get some more tears out.
