    1. it’s just that I have to step away from here, press pause for a little while. I’m pretty healthy, right now. there are songs I want to finish and new ones I have to write. that’s where I will be. then my hope is to share them. xo

  2. Yes! Beautiful cookie. 💓 I learned the power of this when I was a youngster in concert band, when we all paused at the same time before picking it up again… perfection. “The silence between the notes.” ~ Dr. Dyer

    1. ♥️ have to take short break, nothing bad, pretty okay these days after a few lapses. I want to get these songs in my head onto a machine.

  4. A music writing focus which can also be called ‘a break’ is fabulous. Perfect choice cookie. The blog? I do admire your way of expressing so succinctly, richly and wisely. I have been looking forward to some of your future songs. And of course, I understand that songs weave their own timelines to completion and realising reality. It is the process that writing gives with its gentle to dynamic scenarios. Writing a song with a bit of rock and roll alongside a ballad or two. Songwriting hey! What else offers such diversity in its impact and still soothes the soul. Cheers cookie.

    1. so many random drafts, I just want to make things so bad. and I hope you, Gray, and a few more will not be disappointed.

      1. I could never be disappointed. Listening to any songs? Songs are either instant melody and hooks. Or can take time to grow and become favourites with repeated listenings. Some singers can own any song simply with the way their voice presents too. That’ll be your voice cookie. Songs are lovely little, individually unique, presentations and I always accept them all for what they offer.

        So, it’s great that you are going to chill with this ‘break’ and enjoy the processes. As said, songs like to weave their own short to long time patterns to where and when they feel complete. All the best cookie.

  5. That’s profound wisdom. One gives value to the other. They make more sense because of one another. Thank you for the reminder. Blessings and light to you, my friend 🙏 💫
