Piano prodigy Ryan Wang hosted a special private concert for a very special admirer, 101-year-old Dorothy Landry, several months after dazzling audiences on “The Ellen Show” and performed at the esteemed Carnegie Hall. Ryan performed a touching recital of “Variations on an Inner Mongolian Folk Song” exclusively for Landry at the age of five, organized by Canadian digital music distributor CBC Music.
Dorothy, who has been a fan of Ryan’s since he was three, was unable to fully enjoy the performance at one of his previous concerts because of hearing issues. CBC Music realized this and arranged a private concert to provide her with a more intimate musical experience.
The small scene showed Dorothy in her wheelchair with Ryan sitting next to her, his feet hanging above the floor and his hands gripping a big teddy bear, both signs of his youth. Both of them were obviously moved by the concert; Ryan expressed how much he enjoyed performing for “Grandma Dorothy” and how it made her happy.
In return, Dorothy called Ryan a “very special little person” and expressed excitement about his upcoming performances.
She expressed her gratitude to Ryan and sincerely asked that he come see her again following his impending trip to China. This special musical relationship emphasizes the value of generational relationships and the universality of music.
The fishing trip my wife took marked the beginning of the end for our marriage
When the trust is broken, nothing can ever be the same.
Mark started raising suspicions when his wife Lisa decided to take solo fishing trips. Somehow, Mark knew that this need to spend time away from him had something to do with their neighbor Sam, who was also an affectionate fisherman.
One day, Lisa posted what seemed like an innocent photo online, but there was something on it that convinced Mark that he had all the right to suspect his wife was involved with Sam.
On the photo, Lisa was proudly holding a branded fishing rod that Mark knew belonged to Sam. When he confronted his wife, she denied having anything to do with their neighbor and claimed she only borrowed the fishing rod, but Mark’s gut told him she wasn’t telling the truth.
He thought long and hard and realized he couldn’t get over the fact that his trust in his wife was completely shaken. He pondered the importance of transparency in a relationship and knew it lacked from his and his wife’s.
Eventually, he decided to file for divorce.
Lisa’s photo marked the beginning of the end of their relationship and became the catalyst for the collapse of their trust.
This story is yet another proof that marital bonds can be broken easily when there are hidden truths between the partners.
