I enjoy many singers of this genre but no one inspires my soul as much as Loreena Mc Kennitt. At this time of celebration for many I think her music is an inspiration that transcends religion and hatred. So please enjoy this and add something from her if you wish.
Whatever you commemorate at this time of year may you have peace, joy and hope in its celebration and throughout the years.I enjoy many singers of this genre but no one inspires my soul as much as Loreena Mc... more

On this thanksgiving day as every day, I am thankful for family, friends, those I love and my health as well as this planet, particularly the seed and water. I am thankful for its beauty; it's grace; its healing; its spiritual comfort; its power and its ability to provide for our survival.
And on this day I am also aware of the billion plus people on our planet who still do not have access to this fundamental right nor the food it provides. So I am thankful that whenever I turn on a tap, it is there. Whenever I thirst, it is there. Whenever I need comfort, it is there. Whenever I need healing, it is there.
However, we abuse this precious gift through polluting it, toxifying it, hoarding it, wasting it and taking it for granted and that in turn affects every other part of our lives. And as we are seeing water has now become a force of destruction to also be reckoned with because of it. I hope for the coming year that we will truly see a time coming when this resource that is there for all of us will be there for all of us and more will come to understand just how much we need to be thankful for it and the life it brings everyday.
Blessed Thanksgiving to all.

"They say true love only comes around once and you have to hold out and be strong until then. I have been waiting. I have been searching. I am a man under the moon, walking the streets of earth until dawn. There's got to be someone for me. It's not too much to ask. Just someone to be with. Someone to love. Someone to give everything to. Someone." - Henry Rollins"They say true love only comes around once and you have to hold out and be strong... more
