Legacy means "a gift..." handed down

I am just wrapping up the documentary I entitled, "The Greatest Choir Ever." It is about a legacy choir in Wichita Falls, Texas. The true gift is the gentleman who is conducting the choir. OMG! Donald B. Cowan is the man! I have been so inspired by his presence. I feel so blessed that I was chosen to write and produce the story about this choir - the lovely people who make up the choir and all to honor Mr. Cowan for his love, support, encouragement, mentorship, etc. What a beautiful story. I wish you all could see it after it is completed. What a gift.

Life is Scary Sometimes

Watching the news about the rioting and violence happening in England and it scares the crap outta me. My youngest is heading over that way in less than two weeks and I am praying that this nonsense doesn't spread to other parts of Europe...except for maybe in a small village in Northern France :) that is a emoticon that should look evil but I don't know how to do it. haha
Anyway, I got distracted. What is our world coming to? As a former news gatherer it pains me to read the papers, watch the television newscasts and now the on-line news. Why can't people just be kind to each other? My son and I had this discussion the night before he died. As a young child he even questioned why so much war, murder, violence, destruction, etc. in our midst? I couldn't give him an answer then, and I certainly am at a loss now. It is all just too sad.
