I go to a group piano lesson and last week our teacher gave us Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas to play. It was never a particular favourite of mine but have grown to love this version - not particularly difficult but with lots of pedalling, which I'm not best at, so have been practising it a lot.
For the first time - since they're printed right there - I have really noticed the words, and I must be getting old (67!) but one line - 'Through the years we all will be together, if the Fates allow', has really got to me.
At any rate, it's made me determined to enjoy 100% our biggest family Christmas for ages, and not to let any little niggles bother me AT ALL.
Who ever knows what's around the corner?
