This collection of songs has been years in the making. It spans not only time, but people, relationships, the human condition, my personal condition, love, faith, pain, aspiration, despair, joy, and so many other experiences that force one to look within for meaning and thereby drive a cathartic need to write lyrics & melodies. I am grateful
