Ólafur Arnalds - This Place is a Shelter (Soft Sounds)

My baby twin girls sleeping peacefully next to me to this music every afternoon. I will never forget this picture. I love them so much. ❤

i listen to it when i sleep 😪

“If there is a state where the soul can find a resting-place secure enough to establish itself and concentrate its entire being there, with no need to remember the past or reach into the future, where time is nothing to it, where the present runs on indefinitely but this duration goes unnoticed, with no sign of the passing of time, and no other feeling of deprivation or enjoyment, pleasure or pain, desire or fear than the simple feeling of existence, a feeling that fills our soul entirely, as long as this state lasts, we can call ourselves happy, not with a poor, incomplete and relative happiness such as we find in the pleasures of life, but with a sufficient, complete and perfect happiness which leaves no emptiness to be filled in the soul.”
― Jean-Jacques Rousseau

who is the composer? wonderfull thanks for sharing

Y lo de rapear a tiempo?

This is the kind of music that heals. Whenever I discover "soft sounds," I send them to my friend who is a psychotherapist working with EmDr. He uses the clips to reorient some of his clients suffering from PTSD.

謝謝！

Each day the memories of before, of my wrongs, my losses, & heartaches return...but then I bring to light how I've grown & learned so that I can inspire others that we can move forward with new hope

Omg, it is ideal music for work for me

Outstanding material! Thanks for sharing.

Too low!

Sorry for being confused. So is this an original work or a cover? Loving it, whatever it is.....

"The worst happened, and then it passed. You lost the person you thought you couldn’t live without and then you kept living. You lost your job then found another one. You began to realize that “safety” isn’t in certainty—but in faith that you can simply keep going.”

As I'm falling seeing everyone in my life remembering everything since I was little till my 30s I remember seeing everyone mock me and point and laugh but they will never remember my Rage till this day I hold my shield up because I remain strong till never fall remember that

Безмятежность,нежность и ностальгия

Me gustaría hacerles un Videoclip

Speechless….and full emotions

Superb

Outside i look like a person who is balanced and grounded. There’s no immediate upcoming disaster either that awaits me…so no one has a reason to think i can be depressed. But i am …. most of the time i keep thinking about my past, the people who made up my past, the people i cherished but have lost to changing times or natural death. I keep having this anxiety and random thoughts. The worst part is there’s absolutely no one i can confide to or open up. It feels like i am moving slowly but surely to an end point, to a crash, to a burst.

This music helped me thru a major depressive episode.❤

Love it

very thanks for your music

Ever accidentally get so lit you're kinda scared? This is like a lighthouse then, it's welcoming and safe

Im utterly lonely
Most of us are
Because of my lack of respect for the language I put out into the world
I question my lonesomeness .

As if to say.
why me ?
Only until I took responsibility for how I speak out into world .
Ask and you shall receive.
So when I say to world why can't I just be alone
The world said on to me


YOU ARE .

thanks for your music

Is this version you edited?

Thanks, hope everyone has a blessed year 😊 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)

in between the mist of fears hopes and dreams fall into the splendor of serenity in just being 🦋✨🌹

What there is is nice, but the melody is a bit short and repeats too often for me.

Power Full image, the intersection of Time and Space and whom ever crosses its path at a particular point in Space Time.

この音楽とこの風景、なんか考えさせられるなあ。

This hits so hard.

where do you get these cover pictures? please provide link

What a genious title for that Thing!
I See IT anbot more, aß my Home,
To guard IT, Like GOD or a DOG, Bits!
The shelter, because too much, Had lost,
Their spaces, Out from Terra, Arrested,
Now here, to hear, what the inner Voice,
Divorced and enclosed and immun, shure!

Too many löst their Universe, in a multiverse, where the one, Just can survive!
It's a shelter, when WE Work together,
And build homes, d'Or every human tribe, hive or kind! Love has designed!

This type music all time be match with me when i have been alone in the difficult time. Thanks dude.

Pieces of other lives ...just beautiful!

This sounds like something that might help me fall asleep, thanks. I'm having trouble sleeping too much lately, too much stress in my life, but seeing what other people are going thru with their own corrupt govt's upsets the mind too. I will save this to my playlist.

We are just teetering bulbs of dread and dream.
