Lucette, congratulations on your scan results! Yay! Your Mozart story gave me the goosebumps, as the name of the piece translates to, "A Little Nightmusic"

ALL MY LIFE'S A CIRCLE HARRY CHAPIN
SO WE KEEP TURNING
AND EXPERIENCE LIFE MANY TIMES
AND THE MORE YOU LEARN
AS YOU GO AROUND
THE BETTER THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE GETS
AND IF IT MAKES YOU DIZZY
PUT YOUR HEAD ON MY CHEST AND REST AWHILE WITH ME

Thanks for this song Betty & Bernie. I'd never heard of it before.
The tortoise has suggested I share some songs from one of my favourite CDs with you. The CD is "Inside this Room" by David Hobson & David Hirschfelder. It isn't on Youtube. David Hobson is my favourite Australian Opera Singer but has been making CDs other than opera. He is also a composer and this CD he did with David Hirschfelder is quite innovative. He uses the actual voice recordings of Joseph Campbell before and after a couple of songs and has written (and of course sings) songs which follow the theme of Campbell. One song "Do you have a question" is only Campbell's voice set to music. So, since I can't share the songs with you on Youtube I'll type up the words. My three favourites are Eternity, Go for it and Do you have a question. Here are the words of Eternity.
Joseph Campbell's voice says:
Eternity isn't a long time
Eternity has nothing to do with time
Eternity is that dimension of here and now
Which thinking and time cuts out.
David Hobson sings:
I walk the edge of time
I look beyond the
world defined
I talk to the rabbi
never knowing what to say
Would I be so brave?
I talk to professors
who are lost in golden daze
I smile and turn away
for I know all I do not know
So many questions
By the river
I am feeling
The tide is rushing in
Wash me down, wash me down
Eternity's found
Here and now
Wash me down
Let me drown in the river
No division between Elysium
and this field of war
Distant voices
gently whisper
Life's unwritten law
whilst I'm sleeping
Am I waking in another world
Wash me down, wash me down
ETERNITY'S FOUND
HERE AND NOW
Lift me up to another dimension
No beginning before an ending
and what is/has always
been now.
Song ends with a repeat of Joseph Campbell's voice (as above).

my poem about eternity
ETERNITY I am asked to be prepared for eternity How do I prepare? Where will I spend it? Fine questions for philosophers I don’t have that problem Eternity troubles me not at all I am having trouble with today If I can master today Eternity will take care of itself Eternity from what I know of it Can’t be as much trouble as today When eternity comes I’ll take it one day at a time

Great song Betty. Thank you! And Lu liked the Enya one too.
About All my Life's a Circle it's so true because I find I keep running around in circles. Lucette tells me that whenever she asks me to get something I turn around and around until my brain gets into gear and I work out which way to go. Have a good day/night or whatever. Cheers, J.

Thanks for these Betty.
I'm going to be busy the next few days as our friend who is a wildlife carer (with his wife) is very ill. So we are going to stay at their place to look after their animals until another wildlife carer can live-in. It is around the clock feeding of baby possums, little joeys and injured birds. Easy to do, but constant. Stay well everyone.
To Brighten your Day
