I got several thoughtful responses. My cousin in Israel wrote about family: "I'd love to be spending more time with my granddaughters--the few hours I spend with each "cluster" of them truly enriches my life=I get so much from that special time. Perhaps I'm making up what I didn't do when their parents were their ages (set aside time and attention just for them)."
My 18-year-old son wrote me (from down the hall) late last night, "I told you that I would probably be writing music if I had limitless time. This is partially true. I would get organized, take care of the more important things in my life, and then when I had leisure time, I would choose that time to write and compose more music. I want to start over again, and I want to really concentrate on making a career out of it. I appreciate you so much, and I am extremely happy that your booth got such raving reviews last night. As always, I love you so much."
I am blown away by the wisdom of my thoughtful teenage son. What he doesn't yet know is that his music is already beautiful and very moving. He inspires me with his dedication to his music. He epitomizes full expression from the soul, through his music, his writing, his art, and his ability to communicate to his friends and family.
What I learn from my son is to never stop seeking your truth, and to appreciate where you are in the moment.
I want to end this post with an inspirational video sent to me by my friend who is in her 70's and lives an inspirational life. Be inspired and enjoy the ride!
