#i just love him forever
Whenever I’m sad I just remind myself that Chopin was so sensitive and precious that he would cry upon hearing beautiful music even as an infant
And then I get a lot more sad
OK THIS MAN was super homesick that he started crying in the middle of teaching because the piece his student was playing reminded him of Poland (which he couldn’t go back to) and just. Oh my god. That’s so precious and yet heartbreaking
Be still my heart
If you want to shed another tear just remember that around 1840 Chopin adopted a stray little puppy which had been following him on the street and George Sand describes how he spent the whole day looking after the puppy and hugging him, I mean just picture it
