Yesterday

It was SO wonderful.
I had attended many plays, concerts, etc. that got standing ovations. This was the only time (in my experience) that the whole theater positively LEAPT to their feet instantly, with no one pausing to rearrange coats and purses.
Might also be the only time I left a theater in love with the goodness in the world.
