Over the Rainbow

Somewhere over the rainbow, sings a little angel.
She reminds us that dreams really do come true.

Heart Glow

Today I sang at the Centre for Spiritual Enrichment. Talk about an enriching experience. If I could have lit a candle for every heart that glowed as I sang, I’d have started the place on fire. I’ve come a long way from the days of singing to get it technically right. Now my job is […]

And finally on the […]
