          Hey @Teju-Abiola, what a great interview and how excited I was to read you are from Buffalo! (Iโ€™m an hour and 45 minutes away in Alfred, NY and my son is a huge Bills fan.) I love your work and love your perspective on your art and life in general. I think you have a great career ahead of you.

                @Teju-Abiola Since I first saw it in middle school, I've been inspired by the short animated film from 1987, "The Man Who Planted Trees". It's about someone who gives beauty to the world without wanting fame or repayment. He just wants to live quietly and plant forests... and that selfless attitude has always struck me as perhaps the most beautiful thing to witness in the world. Here it is on YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KTvYh8ar3tc

                      @Teju-Abiola I love Ben Rector! I got to hear him for the first time at a Need To Breathe concert two years ago. I don't know many people who have heard of him.

                        @chrisaakins I finally got to see him live in November and the show was amazing! He's my fave ๐Ÿ™‚ Yeah, I don't know too many people who know him even though they might've heard his more popular songs before. I force my friends and family to listen to him, lol
