What happens when you get older? Oh such a joyous plethora of things; ailments, strengths and weaknesses. Your breasts sag, your hair gets thinner, your muscles ache and your eyes find it harder to read small print. Despite all this, you love your body even more than before. And also you become wiser, more courageous, and you choose your battles alot more carefully. You see through the bullshit more easily and you care less what others think and say. Oh, I feel for the youth of today, I remember how I felt inside in my teens and twenties and now it is is a whole different world than the one I grew up in, back when there were no cellphones or internet in our daily lives as children and young adults. It may seem to some that I post less about music these days, and more about my dogs and the beach and everything else in between. And you're right. I hit a roadblock with my feelings towards the music business when I got sick and had to deal with alot of problems while postponing my tour last year. But I am slowly getting back on the horse. Starting to look at musicians for the new project this year, beginning to think about songs, will do some songwriting in spring and have my first concert of the year in July. Taking it slow because the music business is not the only thing that is important to me now, after so many years of it being my main focus. Now I am interested in taking time to heal, to think, to walk, to read, to learn and to spend time with people who truly respect and care about me. Oh, how wonderful to get older and see things more clearly. I would never regret anything that happened to me or the choices I made along the way over these many years of life. But I sure wouldn't want to go back to those years either. NOW is the only moment I want to be in, not the past, nor the future. Simply I feel overjoyed to be in the NOW...
