Pull up a chair.

I totally found this fascinating. One of my favorite things about living in NY was when I would hear GOOD street musicians. Once coming out of the Subway, I heard a group of men singing - in harmony - that song that goes "I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes..." ("It's written on the wind" I think it's called...) and I just still havent' forgotten that. It was amazing.
But to hear JOSH BELL? In a metro station?? Wow. I think I would've passed out. Such an amazing commentary on the state of our 'busyness'.

Thank you for this Pearls link. What a wonderful reminder to "live" each day!

Thanks for this. I included the link in my blog today, too. Great (if a little painful) reminder to slow down, notice, and take in what the day brings. I needed it!

OMG, you are not going to believe this. I just realized that I went to the article and read the bulk of the story, but never clicked on the video to hear Joshua Bell's performance. Not even the short version. So I went back and listened to that, and only then did I notice a link where I could have heard the entire thing! Ironically, the whole time I was reading the article, I was in complete disbelief that people didn't stop and was convinced in my own head that I would have. Talk about a wake-up call!

Ali, thanks for posting this. I have a project where I leave art in public places for others to find, I have been leaving something once a week, on Tuesdays, since last september. I was surprised on how people don't seem to notice the art, they just look past it, even if it's in front of their eyes, even if it has a note that says, "please read me and keep me" It seems we are too busy to just look around us.
you can see the art I have left, here:

Thanks, Ali. I'd like to think that I WOULD have stopped, but I'm as guilty of tunnel vision as the next person. I've got to dig out my copy of Koyaanisqatsi and watch it again. Mind boggling!

Thank you. That was a great article! (I passed it on to friends and family.)

Loved this! Thanks for sharing. I love music & like to think that I would have stopped.

Inspiring. Thank you. I needed that.
