Once again, an amazing article and perspective. Most mornings I start my day with a cup of coffee on a screened in porch, looking out over the mostly natural backyard. I love the solitude, the peacefulness as I notice so many different things of nature within Cobb County suburbia. Even though it’s the same backyard each day, it is uniquely different when you take pause to notice. Changing cloud cover alters the lighting. The wildlife (plenty if you just sit and notice) busily going about their existence in different and interesting ways.
I had not considered bringing this sense of awe that I get to experience every morning into my musical practice. This article is giving me plenty to consider and I’m sure much more will be revealed.

I feel so blessed at what we have in our Cobb County suburban access to nature too! Hope we can have you over soon!
I just took your advice and practiced my lesson material on the screen porch. Hope the neighbors are okay...will wait to see if anyone objects.
