As I write this, we’re on our 5-week long tour with the Waking Up In America show.\u00a0\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
This weekend we were in Roseburg, OR, and Alturas, CA. We have a good friend there, Dan Roeder, and it was great to be able to see him (check out his message on\u00a0Patreon Page<\/a><\/i>\u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/i>\u00a0)<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
The concerts are great and well-received by the audiences (judging from standing ovations we\u2019ve been receiving). We also have had a chance to perform for students from elementary public schools – and THAT has been an amazing experience!<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
In Roseburg, a little girl came to me and said quietly:\u00a0\u201cRemember how you said you always wanted to move someone\u2019s heart? You moved mine today.\u201d<\/i><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
During our show, I tell them about Croatia, we do a few different styles of music (jazz, country, pop), I explain a few things about singing and we play several different instruments (piano, guitar, flute, midi strings and accordion)!<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
But I also tell them about my time as a pop star, when I wanted to sing songs that would build people up – especially little girls – and not make them feel bad about themselves. And how, because I was young, I wasn\u2019t able to stand up to my producers\u2019 team, whose vision was different from mine.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
I tell them how I had the courage to leave my home and my career and to find a way to get back to my dream of inspiring people through music.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
I sing\u00a0Over the Rainbow<\/i>\u00a0for them and they sing it with me\u2026And at the end of the song, I tell them how I changed the last line from\u00a0“Why, oh why, can\u2019t I?\u201d<\/i>\u00a0to\u00a0\u201cWatch me, so can I\u201d<\/i>\u00a0\ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
It\u2019s a beautiful moment.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
And a powerful one.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Because everything changes when we realize how much we CAN do to make our dreams come true<\/b>\u00a0– how we can find that place \u2018where troubles melt like lemon drops,\u201d a place calm and comforting, which we heard of \u201conce in a lullaby.\u201d<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
It\u2019s not magic.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
It\u2019s also not a \u2018five year plan\u2019 that we can achieve by meeting goals and crossing off milestones. Achieving your dreams happens somewhere between doing the work, showing up with courage and persistence, and surrendering to the Divine Love (some of you will call it “God’s will”). This Love is what carries us to exactly where we want to (and were meant to) be, and where we get to serve others.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
On the first concert of our tour, I stood on a beautiful stage and sang\u00a0Over the Rainbow\u00a0<\/i>(it happened to be the 81st anniversary of Judy Garland recording that song). I looked up at the spotlights and felt goosebumps on my skin.\u00a0I realized that this was the exact moment I had envisioned so many times before.<\/b>\u00a0Somehow in preparing for the tour (and working on several different projects at the same time) I didn\u2019t make the connection that this was what I had been working towards for many years\u2026<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
One of my dreams was to have my own show, perform it in beautiful theaters, and to sing\u00a0Over the Rainbow<\/i>. It was so specific: I could see the spotlights and feel myself connecting with the audience when I thought of it.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
I didn\u2019t have a roadmap on how I\u2019d get there. And at times, all of it seemed so difficult and impossible.<\/div>\n
When I pitched Live on Stage (the agency that organized this tour) with our show, I was mostly excited about having work: I\u2019d have a well-connected partner who would book my shows. I was also super excited about working with my sister and Brian Hanson (and David Langley who has been a huge support to us in building this show and who will tour with us next season).<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
We are doing this show together – and all of us need this work. I was grateful that we could make this happen. I wasn\u2019t thinking about my own dream\u2026<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
But when we have a dream in our heart, when we put ourselves aside, when we are willing to show up, work hard and then surrender, magic happens! God and an army of angels are at your side\u2026 Or, like Paolo Coelho wrote in his book,\u00a0The Alchemist<\/i>,\u00a0\u2018all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it.\u2019<\/b><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
I\u2019m sure if you look back on your life, you can see how this has already happened for you\u2026 and I hope you still have faith and courage to dream up a situation in which you want to find yourself.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
I can be as simple as a vision of having a cup of coffee with your loved one in a peaceful place or enjoying a sunset in someone\u2019s embrace. Or it can be building a business or a social enterprise that would help people in need, the homeless or the abused.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
It can be anything\u2026 you\u2019ll find it in the depths of your heart – when you silence your mind and are willing to listen to the Guidance greater than yourself. Don\u2019t be afraid to look for it!<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
And today, perhaps you can become aware of one such moment of Grace that you are living now – and will recognize it as the moment you’d envisioned in the past. Again, they can be as simple as watching your children peacefully play, or coming out of Church with a sense of fulfillment and joy. Make yourself fully present in that moment, and fill your heart with gratitude…<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
And enjoy it!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
