I listen to Breakpoint every single day thanks to a habit built during the Colson Fellows program, so I heard Maria’s voice in my head as I read this. I chortled and snorted my way through and gleefully clicked on the Maya clip at the end. Imagine then how much I laughed to find YouTube’s suggested follow-up videos to be about mental health and anxiety. Then I noticed a video of Hilary Hahn playing Mozart’s Violin Concerto #3 in the mix and, remembering Maria’s discussion about learning violin for the sake of experiencing beauty, I clicked on it. 27 minutes later…I’m in awe of someone named Hilary whom I’ve never met but somehow feel like I got to see her soul bared in some of the most breathtaking violin playing I’ve ever heard. Thanks for the rabbit hole today, Maria. It gave us a homeschool lesson on beauty, hard work, and humor all in one. And now I will be low-key obsessing over Hilary Hahn for the next week or so. If you haven’t heard it, here’s a link and you’re welcome:
