I finally got back on the horse and did two festivals in Denmark this weekend. The audiences didn't know me or have any reason to care about my heavy heart, but when I braved telling them of the loss of my brother I was flooded back with love. Thank you to the people of Denmark. These were a strange couple of shows for me and I could not have mustered it without your heartfelt response.
Today I spent my day off cycling through Copenhagen and everywhere I turned there was some beautiful flower blooming, or a lily covered lake with baby swans, ducks and geese.
I saw life in full force. Then I saw my brother Don and my sister Donna as the innocent children they once were, back in the light of their true precious nature. I felt so connected to them both in this beauty. Don actually spoke to me in a dream here in Copenhagen. He spoke so fast and excitedly that I couldn't make out a single word. Upon awakening, I was overcome with chills and a smile. It felt good and it was good. Thanks to all of you for the gift of your caring and support over these past few weeks. It would surely be a lonely road without you all. I hope to see many of you on July 7th in Tarrytown NY to celebrate Don's life, love and music.
Denmark, I will see you again in a couple of weeks!
Until then...
Love and Gratitude,
Dana
