One fine day, a little girl curtsy'd as she went past; the edge of her skirt on one hand and a violin in another. She smiled at me with a smile that knows not animosity nor melancholy, yet she shed a tear.
Maya of the Metronome; the name Maya came from the local name of one of the smallest birds that thrive in the Philippines and perhaps the world. It's voice though small, is sweet and divine. Born and coddled by a perfect family, in a perfect home, with dreams to last a lifetime. She was gifted in the arts and would play in the park amongst the blooming flowers of spring, her violin. She seemed perfect in every way; but she was diagnosed of cancer--
--twelve months too late.
She now lives in her music, a perfect girl playing the perfect tune for life eternal.

What is loved... lives. She loved her music, so it lives on.
The picture is cute and adorable, as though she is completely unaware that she has died of cancer, and continues to play for the love of music.
The storyline brought a tear to my eye, not in a bad way. I guess you could say I almost envy her. She probably didn't understand what happened to her, only that she got very sick and spent a lot of time in the hospital. And now she's freed from all that, and is free to love her music, to play for the sheer joy of performing, to perfect her music for the sake of perfection, without mundane limitations on her time to be with her music. It may have a touch of bitter to the sweet, but something I might have wished for myself not long ago.
