I worked with a company that broadcast the fuel prices from refineries to the wholesalers and one of the companies was in Arkansas and the lady that did the pricing would always end her conversations with "I appreciate you". Something so straight up and ease to say that said way more than "Thanks", which is a big thing to hear too. I've remembered that through the years because it rings so true. So if you dropped by for just a run thru the song list, shared the music (tres gracias....language holds no bounds for me :), I appreciate you. My journey is a rather singular one. I am my own band, booking agent, recording engineer, producer and manager. I wouldn't be here if not for several people, family, kids, friends, doctors and nurses but when it's time to make a decision, it's up to me. Your enthusiasm for my bits of creation excite the little gray cells so that they can continue doing what they do and hopefully create something that resonates with people like you. Some may resonate like a tympani, some a bongo drum, some may go whizzing by to be forgotten or that rare gem that turns into something after the 3rd or 4th listen. Coming here to N1M has been a bolster to the "keep going" region of the brain and I can't thank you enough for all that you do, how every little or huge it may be. So in closing, I hope you have the heart of a true hippie that seeks and gives joy, believes in the wonders of life in people and in nature, hug a lot, say I love you a lot and thinks of themselves as worthy of a continually supply of happiness. Remember, when the oxygen masks drop from the ceiling, put yours on first. Cuz if you're not in a good place you can't help anyone else and we all need to ready and ABLE to help each other. Peace and Love and Happiness to you all Stephen Monroe
