I was shopping at Walmart today and out of nowhere, as I was looking at birthday cards for my nephew, I heard Amazing Grace being played by the bagpipes. What an odd song to hear as in-store background music. A friend of Dad's played this song on the bagpipes at his funeral. It was haunting and beautiful. I will never hear it again and not be immediately transported back to that place in time. How strange it is to be going about your day, thinking you are doing fine, when something as insignificant as Muzak suddenly takes your breath away.
