About Me

Hello everyone! I don't check this page as often as I used to and I just wanted to send love to all of my friends here. I have been thinking of you and hoping that life is bringing you many reasons to smile, think, laugh, cry, learn, grow, prosper and rest. This is already shaping up to be a most beautiful year. Better than any I have ever experienced! I'm working on so much new music with a plethora of very loving and talented musicians. When new sounds are available to hear, you all will be the first to know! I'm also working on many other projects including community/volunteer work and deepening my practice of yoga, all of which coincide with my artistic endeavors. I'm doing more and more living , enjoying the many moments I have to cherish. Eventhough I'm not around as much to write and respond, please know that love for all of you is prominent in my mind. I'll hopefully be able to answer emails and such soon if you haven't already heard from me.

Peace and Love!******************************************************* ********************Singer/songwriter/musician/dancer/photog rapher/actress/artist/lover/fighter.

Symptoms of Inner Peace:-A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than on fears based on past experience-An unmistakable ability to enjoy the moment-A loss of interest in judging other people-A loss of interest in judging self-A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others-An inability to worry (this is a very serious symptom!)-Frequent overwhelming episodes of appreciation-Frequent acts of smiling-An increasing tendency to let things happen rather than to make them happen-An increased susceptibility to the love extended by others as well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it.True genius sees with the eyes of a child and thinks with the brain of a genii.” - Puzant Kevork Thomajan
"Bebel Gilberto said in an interview: "Aganjú" is a devotion to the saints for protection, good health, better life. The saints and this whole culture were brought by the Africans when they came to Brazil as slaves. "Aganjú" is everywhere, in San Francisco, in New York. "Aganjú" is magic and protection from Brazil."
