A small reminder that you had very nice things to say about silence (aka tuning out the noise) a few months ago :) https://www.outtherepodcast.com/episodes/silencecommunityepisode

Also in the narrated version, when you say “Space for what?” it reminded me of the intonation Marcel the Shell uses when he says “Some people say my head is too big for my body and I say, ‘compared to what?’”

“Instead, try this: do less.” … and maybe you were onto something with “take more. do less.” :-D

I got this in an email today... thought it combined your love of poetry with the theme of the post

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:

To a poet, silence is an acceptable response, even a flattering one. -Colette, author (28 Jan 1873-1954)

Oh wow, that's beautiful and profound. Thank you for sharing!! I feel the same way as a musician too. The silence on either side of music is often just as powerful.
