The finishing touches for the new CD “On My Own” have been made. Tomorrow it will be sent off for production. I feel like a little kid anticipating Santa Claus! I can’t wait to hold it in my hand.

Now that the books are published and the CD is finished, I thought for a moment that things would calm down and I might live a normal life. But when I think about what is planned for the near future, it doesn’t look that way it all. It won’t be quieter, just different.

So what is this CD about? Well, I am still convinced that my faith in the universe carries me to places beyond my wildest dreams — or at least pretty close. There are haunting old patterns  and dignity to be upheld, old habits to be broken, questions of love from various perspectives, expectations, the painful experience of loss, memories of past regrets, even a dose of depression. I guess it’s another CD about life.

It was one more step along the path, a handful of valuable new experiences, an intense process of working with other people — and depending on them! I’m quite happy with it.
