Roses and music

If your child is having a slow week or month or year, don't worry. If your child is having a zippy brilliant period
of life where everything's coming up roses and the backswell of music seems always to accompany his glorious exploits, don't expect that to last day in and day out for sixty years. It won't. It can't. It shouldn't. People need to recuperate from stunning performances.

Life is lumpy; let it be.
