Looking Forward

On January 2nd, I will be performing at the member showcase of the Folk Music Society of Huntington. I'm looking forward to that event! I will performing with a variety of other featured artists. I believe I'll be performing one or two originals that evening. One of the coolest things about this show is that it takes place in a ecumenical church, with huge cross and all. So while you're singing from your soul's center, a great wooden cross hangs over your head. I like that! I saw Lucy Kaplansky and a few other successful artists perform there. I have to say that the acoustics are great in the church! I'm flattered to be part of this performance! If you're in the area, come check it out!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL OF YOU!

Alone again Naturally

Once in a while, I just have the need to hide from the world. So I go to this private area of the beach I live across from. It's a secluded spot that I discovered not too long ago. It's absolutely beautiful. Once in a while, someone walks through the area but for the most part it's pretty quiet. Today, a guy came along and started talking to me. Of course, the cynical side of me thought, this guy could kill me right here and no one would know any better. But after a few moments, I started to relax. He introduced himself as Jason and revealed that he sometimes goes to "my" secluded spot during his lunch hours. He spoke about how much he loved it as well. He spoke about how so many people are not happy and choose to complain about their lives. Jason stated that he was very happy with his life and grateful for many things. He added that people are not aware of how lucky they are. I started to laugh because I've been a little whiney lately about circumstances in my life. I felt like Jason was sent to remind me of that I have a lot to be grateful for. Sometimes, all it takes is a stranger to "wake" you up and make you "aware." Life is what you make of it.
