Music, Movies, and Books

Anything that gives me a new perspective on life. I could listen to live acoustic music all day long.
MUSIC: Not much I don't like; however, I swoon over a good blues song, some folky harmonica jams, or some southern rock stompin tunes.
MOVIES: I'm more drawn to beautiful cinematography and captivating acting than a good storyline. I'm recently obsessed with Peanut Butter Falcon.
BOOKS: The Bible, Jonathon Livingston Seagull, The Four Agreements, The Little Prince, My Life as a Submissive Wife, Hands-Free Mama, A New Earth, Eat Pray Love, The Alchemist, The Tao of Pooh, Memoirs of a Geisha; Tuesdays with Morrie; The Five People You Meet in Heaven, The Rhythm of Life (any of Matthew Kelly's books), Dolce Vita, The Secret of Nimh, Grace Unfolding, Love by Leo Buscaglia, Letters to a Young Artist, Spilling Open (any Sabrina Ward Harrison book), Slam Poets' Chap Books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
