I find it sad that Mozart who gave so much genius in his music to so many was buried in a common unmarked grave with 4 or 5 others; still seems harsh.

His burial simply followed the regulations of the day. But it's still very sad and very harsh. You'd think that exceptions would be made!

True of life! Change is a compulsory part of life. The high tide and low tide.
