I need to go back and read this again but it made me think about how I was so moved by music when I was younger. Now, music tends to be background noise rather than something I fully experience. I would love for that to change. Slowing down and making time seem to be part of the equation...

Beautifully written. Definitely relate to the immediate impulse to stuff the emotional reaction down in order to move on to something “more important.”

Thank you Christine. I think of these pangs now as small nudges back to the idea that this IS the important stuff. It's good to be reminded. 💜

I just reread this. It is one of the most beautiful pieces of writing I have seen in a long time. You also remind us to take a pause and just breath in the world around us. 💕
