"Life is like a piano, what you get out of it is how you play it"

Piano, etc.
Every Monday the headquarters has an early morning devotional. Every first Tuesday the Area Presidency, Mission Presidents, Stake Presidencies have a devotional. Sister Dahlstrom has been playing the piano for these meetings, but is going home in April. When the Employment Center head ( heard that I play the piano, he and Bro. Alfaro became very excited. Bro Alfaro immediately called the Area President and talked for a few minutes. Then he came out to where the rest of us were talking and said that I was being slated for the spot! I am thrilled to be able to play piano to invite Elder Lamartine) the Spirit into a meeting. This is a tender mercy on my side of the mission. Bro Lamartine has an 18 year old son whom he wants me to teach to read music. This kid plays Debussy and Chopin by ear!!!! We have been invited to their home for FHE on Monday. Should be interesting as the wife and kids speak very limited English. Dad does very well, though.

How do you feel about being a music teacher there? Do you accept that this may be what you are called to do or can be of most service to the Chilean people? You have a great talent and an ability to share, but I can understand if you feel let down. No matter what, keep a good attitude and your cup will overflow. Be excited about the opportunity, no matter what that opportunity turns out to be. I'm so jealous, I wish I were there with you.
