I just listened to this interview and am ridiculously inspired by Mohammed Fairouz and his music. If you have the time (or can MAKE the time!) this interview is REALLY worth listening to.
Many of you know that On Being is one of my all time favorite things (yes, this includes books, magazines, tv shows, etc.), and this episode is right up there with the best of them.

Isn't it so wonderful and strange how singing helps to teach us about who we are as people in the rest of our lives? And isn't it also wonderful that we can practice qualities we want to enhance in our lives through our singing?
