I love many kinds of music: world music, jazz, classical, pop.

They sang the words in unison, yet somehow created a web of sounds with their voices. It was like hearing a piece of fabric woven with all the colors of a rainbow. I did not know that such beauty could be formed by the human mouth. I had never heard harmony before.

Shakespeare in Love... such smart writing of an alternative view of history, and such beautiful acting. Like most Americans, I'm a sucker for the accent.

I would have stayed forever within the garden of Re-mose's childhood, but time is a mother's enemy.

Wherever you walk, I go with you. Selah.
