Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata

I'm listening to Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata before bed and I'm thinking about how inspiring this classical piece is, inspite of its melancholy tone. 
As I listen to it I see, in my mind's eye, the human experience and the drive to continue moving forward inspite of the affliction of self.  The rise and fall of the music sounds, to me, a lot like the quest to not only survive but to live, as well.  Perhaps that's what Beethoven had in mind when he composed it? 
I love classical music.  Thanks for the inspiration Ludwig. So beautiful.
