Pure Focus

As I’ve been working on this site, I’ve been looking for a wider variety of music, particularly in the form of curated playlists that I can enjoy while I write and edit posts. With that spirit, I started exploring what Apple Music has to offer and found Pure Focus.

The playlist comprises some really beautiful and moody songs, which Apple refers to as “electronic soundscapes.” That description is apt because each piece does evoke a different sense of feeling and place. Of course, some more than others. Right now, Snowfall by Gideon Matthew connects with me. There is something hopeful and yet wistful in the composition; it’s beautiful. The playlist is also updated, so new surprises await.

As we enter the weekend, I encourage you to listen to something new. Ask a friend or colleague or your kids what speaks to them. Experience it with an open mind and an open heart. It may not click, or you may come away delighted and more deeply connected with those around you and have something new that brings you joy.
