We’re still emerging from the darkness of quarantine and isolation.

We’re still emerging from the darkness of quarantine and isolation. Hopefully, we can move into the light without forgetting the parts of the experience of darkness that make it now so much brighter. We also seek the light and are sometimes blinded by it. Stunned. But when you close your eyes, you can still feel the warmth, see the golden tint behind your lids – your own space in the brightness. And we’re coming back, despite lingering vestiges of the pandemic. Home has changed shape, but at the very least, it can be a safe place to regenerate, and grow. It’s our world to reclaim, and there’s joy in the tentative new freedom to mingle with others - something to embrace with gratitude, that we want to keep.
This book is about all of that - comprised of 5 song collections: Chasing Light with Darkness, Finding Space in Brightness, A Place to Grow: Charting the Swoon, Reclaiming Our World and A Warm Embrace. One of my songs, “Always Time to Climb” contains the line “Wonder born, of odd simple beauty.” When I first posted it, in February 2022, someone said to me “I like the odd simple beauty. That would be a great title for something.…”
