MUSIC AND JOY NOW FILLED HER SOUL

Posted on November 8, 2010 by Judy

And so I am beginning to get the idea that I will eventually write my book as “A Musical Story of A Grieving Woman Transformed.” I will edit down my blog posts, and the musical of my life will be stories with music. The book could be an E-book with music, or have a CD included with a printed version. There are days when I feel like a shooting star. There are also days when I am so happy to be on earth.

IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN-PART 1

Posted on November 3, 2010 by Judy

I am able to share more background on “It Might Have Been.” The three verses speak to my relationship with Michael. The first verse was our romance. The second verse was when I left him, because he was far too serious for me. Then there was the last verse. I wrote: “It might have been, when I called to you in my pain . . .” In 1980, I was in a car accident about a block from my home. It was a painful experience for me at that time in my life.

This week truly reminded me that I was on a journey. I felt like I had traveled so very far in my life from the time when I was a teenager. There were many different paths I could have taken. How did I know which ones to follow to get to the place where I am now? I didn’t find my insight until this morning. With clarity comes peace. I am appreciative and grateful for my clarity! When I was younger and making those enormous “life choices” regarding a husband and career, I was filled with uncertainty and doubt. It was interesting this week to record my song that spoke exactly to that subject!

ALONE WITH MY GUITAR

Posted on October 19, 2010 by Judy

On top of gaining singing experience, I am now an independent performer! I no longer require my husband to be my “roadie.” I am so appreciative that he was patient with me. In the beginning, I was too nervous to pay much attention to setting up the equipment in preparation of my performances at Borders. I needed to learn where to place the speakers, cords, amplifier, and guitar hookup. Every cord had a hole and volume setting – I would panic just thinking about forgetting where things went!
