I have something to share today. While going through my old emails, I came across a mention of an inspiring young artist who had just released her first album. It was buried somewhere in a newsletter from one of those "spiritually conscious" organizations I subscribe to (like the Chopra Center etc.). There are quite a few that somehow managed to get me on their mailing list - and while I don't necessarily want to unsubscribe, I often tend to just let those emails pile up for a while before I get a chance to sort through them. In fact, I've been dealing with a massive backlog ever since last fall, when I had no internet access for several weeks right after I moved into my new condo. So yes, I am currently going though some emails I had received back in November 2016. Call me crazy... but I like to deal with things in chronological fashion (and I tend not to delete stuff unless I've at least opened and skimmed through it; and then sometimes I decide to come back and read it later - even if "later" happens to mean next year, LOL). So the abovementioned "new album" isn't quite so new anymore... in fact, she's currently getting ready to release her second one. But, as they say, better late than never. The download page still works; and as soon as I started listening, I knew I was meant to "discover" her at this exact moment in time. It's just... one of those "coincidences" that send the deepest chills down your spine. Because the lyrics to each and every one of her songs describe precisely the emotional/spiritual state of being that I am moving towards. In fact, they resonate with me at a level I feel powerless to convey in words. Let me just say I have randomly burst into tears several times within the past few hours. Those songs open up something within me that is both beautiful and terrifying. They seem to show me what it's like to feel truly connected to your soul - and, apparently, I've never felt it before. Not to such an extent, anyway. But enough of my babble. I'm gonna let the artist speak for herself:



She's just so... radiant. *blinks rapidly* Her name is Fia, by the way, and she's from Sweden. Not that it matters. All that matters is that she's clearly channeling The Divine:

It's not about the music, really - though I do find some of her tunes quite catchy. It's about her philosophy, her approach to life. She has already mastered - at such a young age - what I am only learning now, in my late forties. That would have touched me deeply even if she couldn't string two notes together. But I suppose you might find her songs quite unremarkable if you can't relate to the message... which is why I said I was meant to "discover" her precisely when I did. Right when I'm trying to tune into the vibration she's broadcasting from, so to speak...
