'let's look at it another way', by Nicholas Hooper ------------ from the side perhaps? or from above? but no get close so close that we can see and feel at the same time the softness of a human mind is not a bad thing it is good to cry inside your eyes and hold your own hand and say, 'I am here' and say it for yourself and see the dark and the light and feel the pain and the joy all at once in an inexplicable wholeness ------------------------------------------------------------ For more in this collection, visit: https://wordandnote.com/dawnings/ ------------------------------------------------------------ About 'let's look at it another way': 'let's look at it another way' is part of Nicholas Hooper's collection of Dawnings — an innovative way to couple word and music. "Every morning at around 5am I get up and go down to my studio. After a short meditation I write down whatever is in my head, giving myself fifteen minutes to do so. Then moving over to the piano (or a more portable instrument like my Ukulele when I'm away), I improvise and record a piece of music inspired by whatever words I just wrote. It is a great way of keeping both my writing and my composing going and I call these small creations Dawnings. They are mostly unedited, like sketches, so that they keep that fresh feeling of an early morning discovery." ------------ About Nicholas Hooper: Nicholas (Nick) Hooper is a composer, musician and author, best known for his two original scores for the Harry Potter film series.
