“Music [gets] the good genes moving — specifically, those that help with mood, memory, learning and basic brain function. But music also slows down bad genes that cause brain degeneration, meaning that listening to music actually acts like a brain shield.” https://t.co/2OXi8YsfbY

“The effect of music training suggests that, akin to physical exercise & its impact on body fitness, music is a resource that tones the brain for auditory fitness & thus requires society to re-examine the role of music in shaping individual development.”

Arts education is not merely a nice addition to the learning experience; it's an important vehicle for kids to learn skills that can also be applied to their other academic studies @edutopia https://t.co/kP3vUzPKUA #edchat #artsed #noncog

This is how to become a more elastic thinker:
- Carve out time for daydreaming
- Talk to strangers outside your social circle
- Absorb unfamiliar art
- Listen, really listen, to ideas you disagree with

Did you know that twice a year the sun sets down right in the axis of the Arc de Triomphe? 😍 It happened last night & it will happen again this evening around 9pm... Isn't it stunning? 🙌🏽 Incredible shot @skude #Parisjetaime #Paris #Parigi #巴黎 #パ… https://t.co/ZIg6ETU24g

If you feel like sobbing, do. If you feel like going to church on Mother’s Day would crush your heart, don’t. You won’t lose your salvation because you don’t want to go to church on Mother’s Day. Grab pen and paper and get alone with God and pour out your heart to Him in full...

”Piano is the ultimate instrument in terms of skill and demand: Two hands play together simultaneously while navigating 88 keys. They can play up to 10 notes at a time.…Pianists have to develop a totally unique brain capacity.…” 🎹 https://t.co/IveSFtjcPf #musiced

Hi, I'm a teacher. I don't want a gun. I could use some more dry erase markers. Thanks for your time.

@LynnFink @slso @stlpublicradio @RobertPeterson3 @lullysfoot Wish I could have heard it! Two of my most favorite compositions and a magical pairing of pieces.

Rep. Kennedy: "It would be easy to dismiss this past year as chaos. As partisanship. As politics. But it’s far, far bigger than that. This administration isn’t just targeting the laws that protect us – they are targeting the very idea that we are all worthy of protection." #SOTU
