When You Least Expect It….

We received some utterly distressing news Saturday night.  One of our closest Nashville friends, Will Clendening, was killed in a motorcycle accident.  Since it is all I can think about, I figure today’s blog should be about the positive aspect (if there is one) of this tragic incident.  Through the entire weekend, I have been privy to a group of people (mostly Nashville’s artist community) pulling together to be there for one another.  Typically, we are a slightly introverted and emotionally reserved bunch of people – only displaying our emotions and deepests reflections through our artwork.  But, then, we have never all had a uniting experience such as this before.  For the first time, because we all love Will so much, we can find comfort in opening up that most fragile part of ourselves to one another. We are part of something greater – and that is all I can glean from this, for now.
