She wrote eloquently about his work as a symphony.<\/p>\n<p>It started me thinking. I wondered how our own lives would be remembered musically or otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>If we created our own symphony, or at least our life\u2019s score what would it contain. We all play a part in creating such a score. Would we carry the melody? Would we add the harmony? Would ours be lyrical? Hauntingly beautiful? Bombastic?\u00a0 The answer is probably, all of the above depending on our life\u2019s circumstances or experiences.<\/p>\n<p>Then again, what about tempo. Would ours be fast or slow? What about the volume? Might we blend the tempo with volume?<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps our lives have varied the fast tempo with loud \u201cnotes.\u201d Or, most likely, there have been slow, soft, melodic, reflective times. Alternating tempo and sound may reflect certain aspects of our lives both the most wonderful and cherished along with the sad, plaintive times.<\/p>\n<p>On occasion, we might have been creating the more discordant portions of our life\u2019s score. Blending and intermingling with the \u201cnotes\u201d of others could well have broadened our own symphony.<\/p>\n<p>Most likely, our life\u2019s score will involve interacting with others. Much as musical scores involve the interplay of parts, so too does our life. Unless ours is a solo version only, mixing, matching, and blending with others creates that life score.<\/p>\n<p>Compositions from our childhood may vary from those in our different adult years. A recurring theme may yet emerge in this score.<\/p>\n<p>How will our life\u2019s score be played and enjoyed by others? Will we smile at those last notes? Will we be pleased?<\/p>\n<p>June 2025<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Platte River Symphony,&#8221; 9&#8243; x 6,&#8221; Gouache, Copyright \u00a9 2016 by Donna Lyons \u201cCreating Life\u2019s Score\u201d By Marty Coffin Evans \u00a9 2023 Several months ago, I read beautiful comments written by a woman about her late musician husband.
