Take a moment to listen. This could save your day.

Hello Steemit, as a follow-up to my debut music post yesterday, I want to share a piece of music I recorded a little while ago. This piece is probably the most famous prelude by the great genius J. S. Bach. Every note this man wrote serves a purpose. While simple in its instrumentation, the intricate patterns, phrasing and development of Bach's music take you on an epic and timeless journey. 
So stop all your busy work, let go of all your distractions for a moment, and just listen and be present for 2 minutes and 55 seconds. It's great meditation, a great way to reset, and it just might save your day.

This is me at the University of Toronto, where I studied classical guitar performance:

Ahh jeez, you've been keeping tabs on me lol.  Now I'm self-conscious ;) 

In all seriousness, thank you for trusting me with this responsibility and entrusting me with this added influence today. Oh and for upping the anti.  I was wondering why the vote power was increasing when mine was diminishing haha.

I think everyone I've engaged with today is pretty appreciative of the generosity produce by this particular event.   

I'm really shamelessly taking advantage of it in every way.  For myself, for my friends and for new users, also for those who I feel have been producing great content, but have perhaps been slipping through the cracks.  

I know the feeling well. 

Cheers!

Beethoven once said that the guitar is a mini orchestra, that's why it is my favorite instrument I even used to play guitar in high school. Beautiful cover man!!

OMG! This was the best piece i've listened to today! I have always loved Beethoven and Bach from ever since i was 6, my dad had original CDs of their music. They calm me down.. Most times i get caught up in this busy life and currently been working on Steemit most part of today. That was a well deserved break! Thanks for sharing😊
