It’s the season for something new.  So when I got an email intro to Dan Damon from our mutual  webmaster, I absolutely had to go hear him.  Dan performs both jazz & spiritual music just like I do, and plays an extremely pleasant jazz piano at Hotel Mac in Pt. Richmond.  It was a lovely evening and so nice to meet a kindred soul, not to mention that the mac & cheese was “to die for” and unlike any I’ve ever had.  Then a few days later, my Sweetie and I took a Sunday drive (on a Friday) out to Clayton.  It was like stepping back in time to an utterly charming little town with a classic park in the middle which was surrounded by vintage looking restaurants and shops.  And it just happened to be the most beautiful sunny day.   Ah-h-h-h… Life is good.  Happy. Spring!

    This Day is precious.  It matters. Days are dwindling. This Day is opportunity.  It spreads before me like a carpet of flowers   that will be wilted tomorrow.                                                      …

    It’s a little hard to write my note this month because it seems like I should be writing about my Dad. But instead, I’m busy writing songs. If I could pick one thing that I like to do the most, it would be songwriting. Time stops, the world fades away, and I am one with…

  • Again?

    I’m bringing all my experience and it’s wisdom (or not) to another year.  Like everyone else, my only limits are my own mistaken thoughts and beliefs.  They are just a product of involuntary exposure to society’s flawed suggestions, along with my knee-jerk reactions to life’s challenges.   Yes, I am innocent, and so are you. …

  • Can We?

    We try, and try, and try.  Our effort is not enough.  We cry, and cry, and cry.  Our tears flow to nowhere.  There is a Loving Source, call it what you may, that can heal every heart, take the world’s pain away. Can I, can you, can we focus on Love, and Light, and Peace?

  • Creative Space

    It’s that time of the year when lesson cancellations run rampant.  Summer vacations definitely take their toll on my  teaching income.  That’s o.k., life is full of trade-offs.  When business is overwhelming, there’s lots of money. But, if it slows down to a dull roar, there’s more personal time.  When I was young, I worried if things were slow, then complained that…

  • Loving Aspirations

    It’s the “month of love” again.  As always, I’m deeply grateful for my loving partner of multiple decades, loving parents who live on in my heart, and so many loving friends and business relationships.  This year I’m looking beyond personal relationships at the bigger picture.  Yep, I’m thinking really BIG! Here goes: I aspire to love each moment.  (That…
