"A high IQ is like height in a basketball player," says David Perkins, who studies thinking and reasoning skills at Harvard Graduate School of Education in Cambridge, Massachusetts. "It is very important, all other things being equal. But all other things aren't equal. There's a lot more to being a good basketball player than being tall, and there's a lot more to being a good thinker than having a high IQ."

La historia que compartió Vera en Facebook me recordó sobre este himno tradicional que fue otra de las interpretaciones que tocamos en la improvisada banda de jazz, en el Teatro Reforma de Tegucigalpa, con Hector David, Humberto “El Chino” y Marco. No hubo mucha actividad en la batería en esta canción, más que un ritmo con las escobillas. (La estelar fue: Castillo Fuerte) En realidad la letra de este himno 'Alcancé Salvación' es impactante, al igual que la historia que lo inspiró.
The story shared in Facebook by Vera reminded me about this traditional hymn, when we performed with our improvised jazz band in a concert at Tegucigalpa back in the mid 90s with Hector David, Humberto “El Chino” y Marco. There was not much to do in the drums this time though, only some brushes groove. (Our main song was A Mighty Fortress).The story behind “It is well with my soul” is indeed truly impressive, such as the lyrics.
It is well with my soul
Horatio G. Spafford, 1873
When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.
Refrain:
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.
Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.
My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!
For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live:
If Jordan above me shall roll,
No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.
But, Lord, ’tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait,
The sky, not the grave, is our goal;
Oh, trump of the angel! Oh, voice of the Lord!
Blessed hope, blessed rest of my soul!
And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
Even so, it is well with my soul.
Alcancé Salvación
De paz inundada mi senda ya esté,
