Thanks to Everyone Here for Sharing

Looking at the pictures and videos of this current tour, I send a BIG, heartfelt thanks to everyone for sharing their stories and images of Stevie & her entourage. I appreciate the time and effort you put into making this accessible. Cheers!

Sometimes I wonder if I "should've just gone" to a show. Yet...

having the responsibility of a beautiful home & mortgage, a gorgeous two week vacation already planned, being home for the summer... and saving days for spontaneous trips with my husband, in the spirit of prosperity ~ the cost of a ticket is extra fuel money we need for the ease of traveling when the spirit moves us. And besides, I am not a night person ~ I'm up by 5am doing yoga.

I get my fix of live music and dancing at a price that I can more easily handle seeing jazz and local bands. I also sing, drum and play guitar for fun and spiritual growth, so I'm getting a musical high for free.

Stevie's spirit and influence is something that touched me when I was quite young and this made a positive difference in my life. So when I start to doubt my choice of not seeing a show, I remember that the light I carry with me is illuminated with the love and spark of Stevie's essence. This helps me feel balanced in my choices when thinking of the big picture with my family, our home and our goals.

However, I did decide that when Stevie tours again, even if it's simply a lawn seat at PNC Arts Center, it's on my calendar and I'm there! Maybe it's her new, glowing ivory outfit...
