There are some good people out in the world...

Just a short observation about people in general.  Today, I was getting a few tweets from people I follow on Twitter.com , and one of them was Michael Shanks ( noted for his role as Daniel Jackson in SG1).  I noticed he does re-tweet some of his followers tweets... and so I thought what the hell,  I have nothing to lose, and asked him to re-tweet my website to his followers.   It wasn't long until my email lit up on my phone and he did it!

Sometimes I forget that people are basically good.  So THANK you Michael.  I hope you have a great weekend, and you never stop doing those "little things" to help others.

Peace in Music,

Music is my Solace...

I posted this status a few days ago on my FaceBook page.  Music truly is my solace.  When I need to feel peace, or express my emotions, I go to my piano.  I need it.. it keeps me somewhat sane.

The trials I have been going through have made me a stronger person.  I also have lost myself in these trials. I forgot who I am.  Music has been the constant companion of these trials... and I know that God has been the founding source to inspire me.

Now, I feel like a different person.  I am not the same as I was 5 years ago.  At this point, I don't know if I will ever be the same, which is not a bad thing. I am more reserved, observant as well as very cautious.

I feel as I am getting older, that I can say anything I want, and not be intimidated by anyone.  I won't tolerate people treating me bad.  I won't tolerate other people treating my friends poorly as well. I will tell you how I am feeling if I feel like I want to. I won't tolerate people making fun of my children's choices regarding their career(s).  I have learned to open my mouth and express what I want.  The past is the past, and while I may be forgiving, I won't put an un-trustworthy person back into my inner circle.

My heart has been broken, rebuilt and changed.  I have come out of the latest of trials on my knees, realizing I need to humble myself, yet stand up for myself and become an independent being filled with love for my friends.....forgiving, less judgmental... BUT aware.

I am very grateful for those of you that have stood by me and helped while I fell to my knees.  I know I am not the most perfect person in the world, but I want you all to know that I am glad you hung in there with me.

My album "Fire in the Rainstorm" is written.. its ready to go... now I need the patience to save everything I can to record it.  I hope you are patient with me in this journey to release this album.  I may post previews of the songs!

Peace in Music!!
Paz en Musica!!
Pace nella Musica!
音楽の平和
Frieden in Musik!
La paix dans la Musique!
A paz em Música!

More to come...

Whats your favorite Holiday Tradition?

Its been a hectic month, and already we are in the middle of November.  Thanksgiving is a few days away.  When I was a child I loved snow.  I loved playing in it.. and then going inside for a nice cup of Hot Chocolate to warm my frozen body.

Come post your favorite holiday ideas, gifts or even pictures on my music page on Facebook!


I would really like to see some of your favorite things you like to do around the holidays!

See you there!

Peace in Music,
