so many stars in the sky tonight
who can sleep with this much light
we'll dance and whirl 'til the light of day
and move out of place what gets in our way

so many stars crossing heaven right now
this is the moment when god takes a bow
who wouldn't smile as this glorious sight
makes hearts and spirits take powerful flight

I live in the Appalachian Mountains in a very rugged and isolated area called the Blue Ridge. It is beautiful and quietly majestic here with only the sounds of the creek, the birds and the wind for company. It's perfect.

The main principle that guides my life is kindness. I love writing and music, photography and art ... and I try to find beauty and meaning in all the things around me. To quote Nelson Henderson: "The true meaning of life is to plant trees under whose shade you do not expect to sit."
