It brings peace to my mind, as I view it as an allegory for life in general: amidst the turmoil, hard work, and general chaos can emerge a wondrous result well worth the effort." She hadn't meant to wax eloquently, but it stirred something profound and deep within her.

In fact, the only time he really listened to music was when he was at home...and siblings wouldn't leave him alone about one thing or another. Actually, this was true about Hogwarts, too. There was a constant buzzing of 'people'...everywhere.
