Driving time or starring into space or even quietly isolating in a crowd are moments alone.  They provide time and space to think.   People often say artists “are different” or see things in a way that other people don’t see…could it be those same people never allow their minds to roam aimlessly or fully process the stimulation around them…or is it true we really do think differently.  Driving 8.5 hours yesterday left me feeling relaxed, inspired and rejuvenated.  The moon in the panhandle of Texas followed me into Amarillo…a place I had never been until this past month.  It’s quiet here, full of open space and peaceful…or is it just those quiet moments to think that make it seem so special.  Either way…time alone in one’s own head  is what refuels and nurtures the spirit.
