November, December. Gratitude to Joy.

Over the weekend I started a 61 day journey through November and December with real-time reflections on the beauty that is held in these two months.

I would love to have you join me on Instagram by clicking here.

PS – Let The Music Play Blog turned four years old today. If you’re still here, this party is just getting started.

Happy birthday, LTMP. You are not mine, but I am yours.

Proximity

What we’re near shapes us and changes us.

What are you near? What books? What people? What ideas?

Maybe there’s a better question…What should you be near?

The answer will come to you when you pause long enough to look and listen.

Asteroids, Stars, and the Love of God. On Being with Krista Tippett

Did you know The Vatican has an observatory? Yes, even the Pope is wondering where we are, what’s around us, and how the Universe is expanding. Listen to this conversation from On Being with Krista Tippett as she discusses the stars and the love of God with Brother Guy Consolmagno (Director of the Vatican Observatory) and Father George Coyne (Former Director of the Vatican Observatory). Where else can you find priests with asteroids named after them? https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/guy-consolmagno-george-coyne/id150892556?i=353138415&mt=2

Sorry, Einstein. Quantum Study Suggests ‘Spooky Action’ Is Real. New York Times

Things get really weird and really awesome at the subatomic and quantum level. This article in the New York Times shows how scientists at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands reported that they had conducted an experiment that confirms one of the more mysterious claims of quantum theory — that objects separated by great distance can instantaneously affect each other’s behavior. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/22/science/quantum-theory-experiment-said-to-prove-spooky-interactions.html?_r=1


In the end, it’s music up there.

Look up and listen close.
