Hi Megan! I am so happy to see you here. So many times you have offered kind and encouraging words. It is truly a blessing to know you. Our experience at The Conversation was amazing. I am still processing the experience. I agree with you, of course, life is good!!! Thank you for being you and for the love and joy you bring to this world. :-)

Hello Theresa! I agree 100%! It isn't about forcing things for sure, but rather putting action to our words. Turning a wish list into a "I'm doing this" list! Thanks so much for reading and sharing!

Hello Tim! Thank you for stopping by and for sharing! Man, I remember the days of cassette tapes! Whew, seems like a lifetime ago doesn't it? I am so happy this video spoke to you and am stoked that you liked the song. I have made several using similar methods..improvising whatever was necessary is an attempt to find the music I hear inside of me. :-) I sincerely hope you go make some music, and if so, please share!!
