Becoming

Renowned violinist Itzhak Perlman, crippled by polio, made his laborious way across the stage and took his seat to begin the concert. As he drew the bow, one of the strings loudly popped, broken and unplayable. He redrew the bow and simply played a brilliant concert.

Asked later why he did not replace the violin, he answered, “Sometimes it is the job of the artist to play with whatever he has left.”

Spiritual coach and author Sarah Naylor has just released her new book, You’re Not Done Becoming.” I recommend it. https://amazon.com/dp/B0FRYCN4VQ
