20 min. Maureen invites Pierre into conversation. Discussion focuses on invitations and flows to pauses. Pauses in breathing, pauses in music, and pause in life. Pausing creates space to consider transitions, better appreciating and paying attention to the next experience. Learning Conversation touches on the teaching of Alan Watts, Stanley Crouch, Louis Armstrong and Miles Davis in considering the power of the pause. We briefly consider the notion of things happening for you vs. to you, which we tee up for another podcast.
