As I traveled through the different landscapes of my inner world, with its moods, feelings, beauties and challenges: the writing, the singing, and the producing of this album became the transformation. The music was the alchemy.
The lyrics and music attempt to give form to something mysterious and formless, as they come from the depth of my heart as it reaches out to express that which cannot be said.
A heartfelt thank you to all my musicians for the love and talent they brought to this album, and to the friends who listened and supported me during this journey:

Lyrics
3. I CELEBRATE TODAY
I celebrate the times I knew
I celebrate my life with you
I celebrate the days of love
The days of light
The times of laughing through the night
I say farewell to those I knew
And say hello to all of you
I celebrate today today today
I celebrate what I've gone through
The joy, the pain, the letting go again
I celebrate today today today
(Violin Solo)
I sat along the riverbank
And watched the days and weeks go by
I didn't know if I'd survive
The death of all I knew as mine
The death of all that I held dear
And suddenly you came to me
And breathed into my heart again
And here I stand alive once more
And celebrate today
I celebrate my life with you
I celebrate what I've gone through
But most of all I celebrate the New
I celebrate TODAY TODAY TODAY
