“The composer, Haydn, after walking in the fields near his home one day, went back to his piano and began his mighty oratorio, The Creation. As he finished the last notes, he declared, “There it is; it is my response to the wondrous creations of God.” We live in a beautiful world, and like Haydn, we can respond to it by doing, achieving, pursuing, and creating in our own lives.” (Barbra B. Smith, A Fruitful Season)
