Music: Christmas

December 1 and it’s time to play Christmas music.  I’m starting with my favorite genre, jazz.  Today is Ahmad Jamal, who I had the privilege of seeing at The Blue Note in Georgetown.  Get in the spirit and listen or maybe listen and get in the spirit.

Music: I Need You to Survive

I need everyone to listen to this song.  More importantly I need everyone to really hear what this song says.  We’ve gone so far away from where we need to be.  Something my dear mother always said, “ just love them, then love them some more!”  


Music: Here’s to Life

One of my all time favorite tunes.  This song has been the perfect toast many times, so listen and raise a glass.  Love your loved ones a little more!

Music: When You Cry

Missing Jetta on this Thanksgiving.  Well, every Thanksgiving because it was her favorite.  I love you, my sister!

Music: Together We Stand

I had to share this song.  We recently left a church that seemed to preach separation and it’s time to stand together.  We have been fortunate to find a church that fits, very multi cultural and it feels like home.

Music: Desde Que O Samba E Samba

I love music from Brazil.  I have a Pandora station with just Brazilian music.  This is one tune i especially  like.  Listen, I hope you enjoy.  It’s a very pure simple sound.


Music: This is Why I Sing

I love this song by Kirk Franklin.  I hope you will listen.

Music: Lord, I Need You

This has to be my theme song.  Seems like I need this more than ever.


Music: Oh the 70s Were Sweet

This is one of those slightly less popular soul groups from the 70s.  Enchantment, this was one of their less popular songs but I loved it. Where Do We Go From Here.  Enjoy, I sure do.

Music: Oceans, Again

I can’t get enough of this song and how it comforts me when my burdens seem very heavy.  Listen again.
