But I'm inclined to think that we're all ghosts . . . ; it's not only the things that we've inherited from our fathers and mothers that live on in us, but all sorts of old ideas and old dead beliefs, and things of that sort. They're not actually alive in us, but they're rooted there all the same, and we can't rid ourselves of them. I've only to pick up a newspaper, and when I read it I seem to see ghosts gliding between the lines. I should think there must be ghosts all over the country—as countless as grains of sand. And we are, all of us, so pitifully afraid of the light.

Composer Sergei Rachmaninoff In Concert

“What is Music ? How do you define it ? Music is a calm moonlit night, the rustle of leaves in Summer. Music is the far off peal of bells at dusk ! Music comes straight from the heart and talks only to the heart ; it is Love ! Music is the sister of Poetry and her Mother is sorrow !” - Sergei Rachmaninoff

sitting next to an open window feeling the gentle spring breeze across my skin, oldies playlist on repeat, book in hand, the comforting smell of cooking veggies...this is what love feels like to me
