Hello, my name is Glenn Meier, a mediator and practicing lawyer living in Las Vegas, Nevada. Welcome to the Peace, Music, and the Space Between blog.
Let me tell you a little about my initial vision for this blog. There are three elements to the blog title: Peace; Music; and the Space Between. Peace refers to the call I feel professionally to incorporate mediation work into my practice as a lawyer. Music refers to journey as a musician which has recently led down the path of my joining a local rock band as the bass player. Those two areas by themselves have the potential to generate a lot of content, and we still have another element - the space between.
It's this last element that most intrigues me. This may be where things get a little "new agy", but I promise it's not too scary! As I have learned and thought more about mediation and as I have worked to develop my craft as a musician I have had a strong sense that there is a connection between the two things. I believe this blog will provide me an opportunity to examine that connection.
As for subject matter, I see the possibilities to go in a lot of directions. One day may be a little psychology blended with music theory. One day it may be a buffet of American jurisprudence, gig stories from the band and quantum mechanics. Things that I learn in my career have application to my music. I can take things I've learned as a musician and carry them over into my professional work. Plus, lessons from either area definitely have application in all areas of life - the Space Between!
