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 where all paths are welcome. (4857 Redwood Road, Santa Rosa, 707-542-7729) It would be wonderful to see you there. Meantime, back at the Berkeley bungalow, people have been telling me that I have a “good” story worth sharing, so I have attempted to put it in writing. Shocking how easy it was to condense it into a page and a half, and re-reading the synopsis of my life was truly an eye-opening experience! If you’d like to read Cynthia’s Story, you can find it on the inspirational page of this website. Humm-m-m-m… Actually, if you count each song as 1 that equals 4 chances to share.

Holiday Hubbub
ByCynthiaLast night was nearly sleepless, with lists of things to do running through my head, along with startling realizations of things I’d forgotten about entirely (like writing this note to you around the beginning of the month). Sometimes the holidays feel like a fast moving train coming right at me! Fortunately, the rough night prompted…

Stepping Up
ByCynthiaAll the kids are back in school, and navigating the challenges of a new grade. Scary? Exciting? Maybe kind of Fun? Meanwhile: The last song (#14) for my album is written, and suddenly I’m thrown into the pre-production phase. First it’s a big “Whoopee-e-e-e!” Then reality strikes. This is certainly not my first album, but it’s my first all original…
