The Easy Work
The Easy Work (5:21) – A song inspired by a summer afternoon spent on the patio of a restaurant along the lower Niagara River. Upon seeing a small group of swallows singing while resting on a nearby power line, it made me think of a quote from Joseph Campbell regarding whether we live our lives instinctively, or with conscious intention.
