MUSINGS...by Beverly Rieger

September is on its way with its change of seasons.....announced with storms to bring the cooler weather. Birds begin to flock for their flights south. Spring and summer flowers give way to mums and asters and other flowers of the Autumn season. The air feels crisp and the light begins to change texture. Ancient/Future Symphony will be the featured album for the month of September. This is my favorite music of all the music that I have composed and recorded. And.....the total album was recorded within 8 hours of studio time! Obviously Ancient/Future Symphony already existed as part of me, and I simply had to open up and let the music flow. This blog writing is called Life Continues and Ancient/Future Symphony is a celebration of life beyond our life in physical form. We are spirit, we come into physical form, and we return to spirit. Our life force extends through generations. Everyone has a different idea of what "spirit" means, and what our life her...

Well.....I just wrote an entire gorgeous Musings and blogspot deleted the entire thing before I could publish it. They are very sorry! So, obviously it wasn't anything that you were supposed to read.

It was so beautiful and inspiring!! For...

Well.....here I am again writing at 2:37AM. There seems to be a pattern developing here of immense creativity in the middle of the night, and then sleep sometime in the middle of the day. That's OK with me if it's OK with my body. We are coming into a full moon again and the beauty of that light, along with the song of the night creatures is lovely beyond compare. Sometimes I try something and it doesn't work at all. The new e-mail address called storiesforbeverly@yahoo.com was one of those "doesn't work" things. It sounded like such a good idea, but it was met with a resounding silence. So.....it's gone into that vast graveyard of not so good ideas. But my philosophy is, if you don't try an idea you can't know if it's a winner or not. Storiesforbeverly@yahoo.com is gone. However, the comments option on my Musings blog is still very much open, as is my own e-mail address of mayandream@gmail.com. The EDGEWALKER music is on the hom...
