Don't listen to music when you're

Read the other day that one shouldn’t listen to music while writing — obviously — someone who doesn’t have ADHD
People have the silliest ideas about what’s going on around here
I do too — isn’t that the point? To have stupid — silly ideas and to not take ourselves seriously
The important things — naturally — without our grandiose ideas — come to the fore
The rest — fades into the background
Replace g-o-d with Mystery and I think that’s what I was saying
Learn to laugh at yourself — again
Everything will get easier
and interesting

Off to the boat!

Robert Pirsig said something similar about music. I've read Zen and the Art twice but I've never subscribed to more than half of what he's had to say.
