I’m so grateful for my morning gratitude practice.  It makes me happy, and gets my day off to a good start.  First, I write a list of things I appreciate about yesterday, making sure to put a positive spin on any thing that didn’t seem so great at the time.  (If I woke up grumpy, things are usually looking better now!)  Then I jot down everything I’ve loved so far  today, and all I’m looking forward to doing for the rest of the day. (Nothing like planning to have a nice day!)  Next come eight more wonderful things that are constant in my life, like good health, a roof over my head, and a lasting relationship.  (Feeling blissed by this time for sure!)  Now for the grand finale: Number eleven is something currently happening in my life that feels truly special.  At the moment, it’s performing last night for a benefit called Let’s Raise The Roof, where several faiths came together to raise money to help First Congregational Church Berkeley to recover from a big fire.  It was a really fun and inspirational evening, and it’s all going to happen again on  Sun. Dec. 18, 6:00 p.m., Lake Park Methodist Church, 281 Santa Clara Ave., Oakland. Ticket donation is $25/one or $20/two or more.  Info/Questions: roymosley@comcast.net  (415) 742-0538

Suddenly, and out of nowhere, the jazz bug has bitten me…

    ByCynthia

    Adventures in music continue as my inspirational originals album moves along.  Amidst recording sessions, mix-downs have begun.  And next week, I’ll be turning over a finished piano/vocal to the arranger.  Can’t wait to hear what he does with it… So Fun!   Simultaneously, I’ve been editing the avalanche of videos generated by the jazz gig…

    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.                                                      …

    Music heals the heart like nothing else, and I am so grateful for the inspirational songs I’ve been given to share. I will be singing 3 of these originals at the Unity Church in Santa Rosa on Sunday July 15. The service is at 10:30, and all are invited. Unity is truly a loving place…

  • Can We?

    ByCynthia

    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?
