Time to start posting again!

A snow storm has me house bound today.  I live near the West Coast of Canada, and this amount of snow is very unusual.

But here I am finally trying to revive asacredspot.com.

I’ve written about 7 songs in the last 18 months plus some music for 2 or 3 older songs, so I feel some momentum building.  I’ve also taken up the Tenor Ukulele, learning and teaching it at the same time. It feels like a natural fit for me, I do love it!

My youngest son passed away at age 25, three years’ ago this January.  He was a wonderful presence in my life, and I find myself struggling to maintain spiritual practices, such as prayer, meditation, journaling, dreaming, writing songs, and being with the ones I love, as a way to stay connected with him and his older brother who passed away at age 10, over 20 years ago, both together now, in the unseen, undying world.  The world of inspiration and love is where we abide together.

My oldest son just became a father, making me a grandmother, a year and a half ago, which has brought about the delight of getting to know my son in new ways, and the absolute delight of having a grandson, with whom I hang out weekly, and completely adore.

My husband and I are navigating several new waters, including the approach of retirement, and are finding common ground in pursuing our passions of music and visual art.

Please send your blessings this way, as I am for all of you, to be persistent in our pursuit of finding our passions and living our lives, making this world of existence, a work of art.

Love to all,

Cheryl
