FRAGMENTS
Un-adult
One epiphany I’ve had as a parent is that the best smiles come from infants.
And maybe I think this because Ren’s smile is absolutely world class (perhaps biased).
But I also think it’s because their motive to smile is pure joy, innocent as snow.
And when we express our selves unadulterated by politics or gain..
I feel it moves us far deeper.
Ritual
Before I start writing in the studio, I burn an incense stick each time.
I take out a sandal wood incense, break it in two, light one half and place it in a holder.
And as the scent rises, I take a moment to feel gratitude that I get to do this again.
Hopefully, the muse will visit me today.
