“As if in each of us There once was a fire And for some of us There seem as if there are only ashes now But when we dig in the ashes We find one ember And very gently we fan that ember Blow on it It gets brighter And from that ember we rebuild the fire Only thing that's important is that ember That's what you and I are here to celebrate” - Ram Dass quote, lyrics from “Sit Around the Fire” Some big news before we get to the episode with Jon Hopkins: This episode of the Mindspace podcast will be its last.
