I have a multi-cultural background, and I cherish the traditions and gifts that my Asian, French and Native American ancestry brings to me. The one thing that has been consistent throughout all my years and through various explorations of different beliefs and faiths, is this image of the newborn babe in the deepest of winter.
The hope this brings to me, the powerful message of life when nothing seems like it could grow speaks to me on my healing journey.

No apologies for the love I feel inside of me
Hold the writer’s pen and play with grandchildren
I’m so happy!
….Seasons come and go
and I am growing old
Now, hear me sing…
No apologies, oh no apologies…no, no, apologies
Oh, no apologies, sensuality belongs to me
Life is full and rich and twilight promises
There’s more to see…
And more to be…
And more to know…
And more to grow…
[I will be going to work this weekend and probably won't be able to access the internet for any length of time until Monday, and since I really like this song, I'm not going to schedule any posts while I'm gone. I'm just going to let this one sit at the top for a while. For those of you who would like this song, I'm offering it as a free download at www.soundclick.com/dreamsinger for a limited period of time as my celebrating gift to you.]
