Lose Yourself in Moonlight

I've been reading I Capture the Castle (fantastic!) before going to bed at night.  In one scene, they mention the piano suite Clair de Lune by Debussy, so I thought I'd check it out because I do enjoy a classical piece from time to time.  I grabbed Tyson's smartphone (there was no way I was getting out of bed and getting my laptop from my office), and searched for the song on YouTube.  I'll let the song speak for itself.




I was on the verge of tears from the beauty of the piece, until Shadow and the kitten decided it was play time at the foot of the bed.  I would suggest listening to it when you are sitting quietly and you are enjoying the moonlight.  Lose yourself in the moment, and enjoy the emotions the piece evokes.  Hopefully, it moves you the way it moved me.
