Good Music ...

Good music can make we me weep, in its beauty and profundity, whether it be rock, instrumental guitar, or classical.  So, I guess I could say true beauty makes me weep, in its profundity and poignancy.  I will tear up at a sunset in a heartbeat.  It just resonates in a deep place where I feel one with all, and before I know it, I’m wiping my eyes.

I clearly remember when I was a pre-teen, at music camp.  We were in orchestra (myself being a 2^nd violin), playing Pachelbel’s Canon.  Here I was literally surrounded by all this live music, and I was flooded by the beauty of the piece, at that moment, with 30-40 string instruments in harmony together.  What emotion it evoked!  I had to shut it down to continue playing.

This awesome kid here, Jason Kertson, just did me in with his little video.  I wanted to share it with you.

I think for most people, pure talent is a turn-on.  I think he was around 13 when he did this, 3 years ago.  Wow.

Anyway, 2013 has been kinda blowing my mind.  A lot of big personal growth going on for me, and I know, others.  Still managing to stay centered, getting better at being grounded, and now better navigating the challenges of being part of such a world on the brink.

How y'all doing?  Let me know!

Oh, yeah ... here's that beautiful sunset I was talking about ...
