Who Is the Real You?
This is the first line of a song I wrote about 4 months ago. At the time, I was writing this for a song group. It was an assignment in which I had to use these 2 words: vastness and pureness. I was not happy about this. What kind of words are those to have to put to into a song, I asked myself!!
But this is not supposed to me about me. It is for you. So what is the point you ask. I think it is about creativity and wonder. You don’t always know what is happening when you start writing or painting or singing or doing anything creative. Sometimes you start in one place and end up in another. That is the wonder of the process. Sometimes the process is what it is all about!
It is exciting, scary, frustrating and exhilarating all at the same time. You feel fabulous simply doing it – whatever IT is for you.
So keep it up don’t give up and if you have not started, well don’t worry you will. Let me know how it goes.
Any by the way, please listen to the song in this episode! It asks a question I did not even realize I was asking. In fact when I wrote the song, the night before my class, I did not really know what it was about. The words and melody just came out – after the week of being annoyed.
Love to you all,

I went to the WIN conference on LA (along with Aunt Lena of course) last weekend. It was called BE THE CHANGE. And it changed me! Please listen and see why and how!
A visit to an alzheimers community and the power of music! Reminded me of this old folktale The Wooden Bowl. You know I believe the power in music and story is so strong...we learn so much...or at least I do!
Anne-Louise And Aunt Lena tell a true story of a friend choosing to try something new. (well mostly Aunt Lena tawlks!) Of course the something new is making gravy - Aunt Lena's favorite thing to do. Do they succeed? Listen and see what Lena has to say about that!
Aunt Lena gets the microphone to explain her theory of cooking and life! 'She' also sings her popular number "You Gotta Make Your Own Gravy" - a song to take you through good times and bad. In fact, a song that you can add your own verses to...and 'she' would love you to write to...
Can we see through another's eyes? What does that mean? Aunt Lena illuminates this with her funny and pointed folktale!
Is common sense common? What do you think? How can we remember those easy every things? An old folktale pokes fun at we human beings who think we are so smart!
Your mind believes what you are telling it. So tell it things that make you feel good. We all have the power to do this!
We can create the kind of day, week, month we desire.
Aunt Lena comes to talk about this topic by way of getting a new husband! See her at www.auntlenasez.com
Aunt Lena come to talk with us about how to feel good and how to stop complaining...as only she can!
Working with an elementary school reminds me of the power of laughing plus the fallicy of perfection!
I am learning again not to make assumptions. The song Benny Miller is a great illustration of this so I sing it!
A hilarious experience that happened to me 2 years ago. it was just what i needed at the time and keeps me laughing every time i think of it!

You Gotta Make Your Own Gravy: How to create a vibrant and passionate life blog
I just have to write for a minute about the weekend in LA about the convention!
It was fabulous - so many amazing women. I learned so much, made so many wonderful connections, met so many 'sisters'. It truly was life changing for me.
I know there will be more sharing of this conference here...
Till we all meet in LA for the International Convention. I can't wait! (I know it is not considered cool but I do love exclamation points!) Having Been at a WIN event before I know this will be a fabulous day.
Best of all, our daughter who is 30 years old and a school guidance counselor...
Raining outside but cosy inside today. Aunt Lena and I just taped another show. Here is the thing....when I am feeling bad, coming to the WIN lifts me up...taping a show with 'Aunt Lena' who is eternally optimistic lifts me up ....and helps me remember what is true.
Listening to other shows does...
