How exciting the third year of my next chapter as a freelance musician began — with two contrasting concert performances.
The fall of 2019 was primarily focused on preparing for my December organ concert of Advent and Christmas music as part of the prestigious Jacaranda Music >
I worried a lot. Will the garden grow, will the rivers
flow in the right direction, will the earth turn
as it was taught, and if not how shall
I correct it?
Was I right, was I wrong, will I be forgiven,
can I do better?
Will I ever be able to sing, even the sparrows
can do >
Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes, including you. --Anne Lamott
The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play.
Be a friend to yourself. And that will be magic in your life. Other people will see your goodness when you have seen it first.
God speaks to each of us as he makes us,
then walks with us silently out of the night.
These are the words we dimly hear:
You, sent out beyond your recall,
go to the limits of your longing.
Embody me.
Flare up like a flame
and make big shadows I can move in.
Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep >
