The folks in town called my Dad “the man with the million dollar smile”. H e was a family man who enjoyed playing with us kids, and I loved riding around on his shoulders. Even though he was always home when he wasn’t at work, I never really got to know him as a person until my Mother passed. The last years of his life were precious to me. I found out what Mama saw in him: His smile actually came from his heart. He had a deep and genuine appreciation for life and especially for children. Dad will be on my mind this month when I debut my new song at a private event. It’s called Ever Shining Bright. It’s not about my Father’s smile, but it sounds like it should be!

Everything Unfolding As It Should
ByCynthiaThey didn’t cast me. Honestly, my first reaction was surprise! (Color me confident.) At any rate, it’s ok. In fact, it’s good. Auditioning for America’s Got Talent was an amazing adventure, but apparently the Powers That Be have a better way for me to get my songs out to the world. It appears that this…
Again?
ByCynthiaI’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. …
Loving Aspirations
ByCynthiaIt’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…
