So gorgeous, Niamh! You and Kev really nailed the feeling of infinite possibilities here — so open, so expansive, so hopeful. Yet with a wistfulness. Amazing. Love what you did with the keys!
I feel so strongly this sense of standing on the precipice. How exciting.
When reflecting on my own moments that I would define by transition, it seems most of them are tinged with some kind of heartbreak too. The moments when the world of all things feels so big that the heart overflows. So often the opening of the horizon is locked in dance with the closing of something past, and the closing brings sorrow and the opening brings that sense of infinite.
I think during these times I just seek nature, as all of my transitions include travel, trains, backpacking, strangers, crashing on couches of friends, embracing the unknown by not having an itinerary and letting the slowing down force my mind to open up.
If all that makes sense. Thanks for the gift of this song and this post and this memory.
This absolutely makes sense! And you are so right, about the dance of opening and closing of phases. It's such a great way to describe these moments and definitely what I felt at this time in my life. Thank you for listening and reading!
You captured the feeling beautifully. So many lines to copy and paste in here to say thank you for. I’ve selected one for now :)
This is the land of infinite possibilities, a place where we’re not really sure what is coming next, but we do know, whatever opportunities come our way, we are going to say yes!
Yes I love that feeling of being on the precipice of infinite possibilities, when life feels full and overflowing. I've been thinking about the magic of the feeling of a beginning recently, when everything is marked still by possibility and fluidity and in a way we live out those infinite routes in that singular moment rather than any sense of the fixedness that comes later. Beautiful words and a truly beautiful song
Thanks so much Daniela. You are absolutely right, the infinite lies in the small moments rather than when settled in the new season. I often think the same about nostalgia, the magic being in moments of reminiscing.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful music made with your beloved, Niamh! Inspiring!
My cousin is a professional musician in Philly who travels the world with his music, Tim Motzer. I admire musicians as music is a Universal language! Btw, Tim's girlfriend, Karen Gross has a podcast called, "She Rocked It" about women in the music scene- check it out and maybe you could be a guest.

Thanks so much Matt! Loved writing this one! Composing on the strat opened up so many avenues for me!

I played the music as I read, which was heavenly.

Thank you Niamh x
Thanks so much Unz! I love that you listened and read at the same time. Now just to reach more often for the yes, even in the everyday! x
Yes to that x
