Gift of God.
Once Beethoven , the celebrated composer and musician , concluded his concert and was surrounded by friends and admirers . Struck with wonder at his obvious skill , they stared at him , wide – eyed . They were too overwhelmed by emotion to express themselves in words. They had all been carried away by the sweetness of his music . The solemn silence was broken away by the words of an enthusiastic lady : ‘ If only God had given me this uncommon gift of music . . . . . ‘.
Beethoven replied : you say the uncommon gift you find in me is the gift of God . Remember that you too can get this gift .Do you know what you should do ? . Play on the piano eight hours a day for forty years . That’s enough .You will be as good as I am .’
