I’m not talking about religious art, or things that are meant to be morally uplifting. All creative acts are an homage to the first creative act, and we participate in that when we make music.

Mandolin. I've been too busy to play with my Masters courses and all. I need to make time. For me, its about being an integrated human being. life, love, work, learning, creation, play, art, spirit, family... That's an incomplete thought that I need to work on when I don't have four assignments due in class.
