The symphony of Life

In reality we are just one part of a great symphony of life. We play one instrument–ours–and that is all we have control of. If we play our own instrument beautifully and choose the orchestra we play in carefully, the odds are good that we will experience beautiful music most of the time. But, if other people in the orchestra happen to play discordant notes, we will be impacted by them. We should not, however, allow their discord to deter us from playing our music beautifully.
