	So pick your battles, what can you handle? I can handle all of you. Not everything, but all of you. I watch a river: it just flows on by. I close the windows, try to focus time: Shine a light, this light of mine on All of you, all of you...all of you, all of you We’re close-knit, tight stitched Like complimentary fabric. There’s a thin line that binds us And loose threads on-wi-ind us. REFRAIN My mind wanders in and out. Up and down. Guide that thread. Get it under control… still tethered to some phantom chord. REFRAIN All of you, I love you: all of you: I love you-ou...

about

I keep a Mary Oliver quote on my kitchen wall: "Instructions for living a life. Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it." Somedays I succeed at following these instructions. Other days: not so much. Paying attention is easier said than done. Join us as we explore the limits of the human attention span. How do you choose to focus your time and energy in this distracting digital age? What does the phrase "owning one's attention" mean to you? Let us know in your comments & thanks, so much, for listening, Leah

Birds, Bees, The Clouds & The Trees
by HARRISON

Great instrumentals. I like the bluesy/jazzy styled and have lined up the lyric-less tracks for long car rides or stints in the kitchen when I just want to mellow out. The Quiet-Loud Machine

Great Thunder
by Waxahatchee

If albums could be friends, Birdsong and Great Thunder would prolly be pals. Feels more like the real, spare, interesting country sounds I grew up with than anything contemporary country offers... The Quiet-Loud Machine
