Imagine a brilliant symphony being played. And within that performance, you get to play one note a single time … and nothing more.

In some ways, life is like this. There’s a grand composition. And within it, our contribution is an all-too-brief moment in the long continuum.

Knowing this — that this is our only moment on the big stage — wouldn’t we find the motivation to give our all to that one note?

The final rest is inevitable. For now, the note is yours to play.

Play it well. Play it beautifully.
