I'm happy to announce I've released a free email course on composition called Intro to Strong Composition. It's…
Appreciating the Beauty of Life
I have been mostly offline the last few days or so because it’s really great to finally say I’m a new Dad for the second time in ten years. My wife gave birth to our second child, a healthy baby girl yesterday morning, “Acadia Marie.”
There are moments in life where words can not describe the feelings and emotions we experience as human beings. While nature provides many such magical moments, the birth of a child is like none other I have experienced. It reinforces once again for me the fragility of life, and the importance of appreciating how lucky we truly are to be alive.
