Hi everyone.  Hope you are all well and continue to stay that way during this global health crisis we are facing.  But in addition to protecting your physical wellness, what are you doing to stay mentally healthy today?

I know we are in a serious situation, but I need a break from the gloom, doom and bullying by way of hoarding. Music has always been my refuge and watching those beautiful Italians singing to each other from their balconies reaffirmed my belief that music is the answer. So until the old normal returns, I am going to share a song I listen to that helps me escape the current state of things, if only for a few minutes each day.  And if this helps anyone else, even better.

July 1.  We are officially at the halfway point of a year that will not stop shocking us.  Music continues to feed my soul and give me comfort, strength and a safe place to escape to when it is all too much to take in.  And what better piece of music to continue with than an anthem that suggests music as the way to save us all?

I do not own the rights to anything.  I am just sharing what I love and how I am coping with you.

Stay well.
