Birthday Thoughts… and Music

I turned one year older yesterday… do I feel wiser? Yes and No. It has been a very productive year in self development but there are other things that I feel I’m still stuck in.

After that… and yes, it was a little crazy of me… I went to a 1.5 hr. salsa practice for the new dance group that I’ve joined and then ran home to a birthday get together with a whole bunch of friends and others crammed into my little apartment full of boxes (’cause I’m in the process of moving), it was a little overwhelming to have all of these people here but I was feeling good. Of course I had a little birthday mix all ready for such an occasion, I want to share my international birthday music mix, well… at least some of it, it was too long to share the whole thing.   Read more
