Below is a link to a TED talk by conductor Benjamin Zander. Not only is he an entertaining speaker, and uses classical music to make his points but, in this particular presentation, I can virtually guarantee that you will slip into a few moments of thoughtful introspection during the last few minutes. Find yourself a 20 minute space in your day and, regardless of your taste in music, I think you will be moved.

A New Direction Perhaps? 
Marvelous post! This is worth so much more than the 20 minutes spent listening, even if your are not the classical music lover. I was gifted a few years ago with his book (co-authored with his wife, Rosamund), “The Art of Possibility”. An amazing man of many talents. Thank-you for a very enjoyable experience!

Totally agree with you Ron. Currently, there seems to be so much being said, but with so little prior thought.

Native Americans have always said, there is much talk, but nothing said. It seems we talk to just hear ourselves be important.

Sadly, and certainly at the political levels, that would seem to be the case. Politics seems to have become a self-serving money making career opportunity, with little thought for all the people who actually make any country work.
