GRIEF EXPRESSIONS 1

The three songs for this medley are profound expressions of my grief. Each one helped me to find incremental healing along my grief journey.

I am sharing the individual songs, as well as a link to a page with more about each song. (accessed by clicking on the thumbnail image)

“Wonder Why” is a song to God. I find the word “wonder” to carry two beautiful meanings – one of questioning and the other of awe. This song is distinctly different form any of my other songs. It was written because I was heartsick from witnessing intense human suffering. I sadly remember a bereaved mother whose faith was shattered and she truly died of a broken heart from her grief.

“So Real” is about facing the shock of grief. I remember well my inability to sleep or face the devastating reality after my son died.

“Every Season” was the beginning of my healing. I hadn’t written a completely new song for over 30 years. It became my theme song to Jason, as I faced my grief and remembered him clearly with the changing of the seasons for 18 years since his death.
