I learned recently that white noise on a tv or radio is from the background radiation of the universe interacting with the antenna. I also learned that the reason that children respond to the "shhh" sound when parents are calming them is because it mimics this background radiation that is constantly around us. I wrote these lyrics about how love is the background radiation of the universe.

A little later I noticed a repeat melody when listening to the sound machine that my kids use to go to sleep. I decided to use this melody to make a song, and put these lyrics to it:

Sometimes I wonder
if life can be wonderful
if we weren’t under 
this “punish or plunder”
And It is superfluous 
to him to her to us
To say it’s them or us 
who must be dolorous
I want to release 
that untrue belief
That to get relief 
we must be a thief
Stealing love from now 
building a temple mound
Only for those who vow 
to be like us somehow

Love is the background radiation
Love is the best foundation’s foundation
Love is the soft sound heard when conversation is through
Love is the H2 of the ocean
Love is your intuition in motion
Love is my daily new notions of you

when I fall for the
lie that it’s them or me
I keep that safe story
Deep in my memory
Or when I am in fear
I hold on to the dear
Heavenly palace near 
oceans so crystal clear
every perfect place 
has to keep in place
it cannot embrace 
Alternative faith
love is here now too
for me them and you
An expanding universe 
with many rooms

Love is the background radiation
Love is the best foundation’s foundation
Love is the soft sound heard when conversation is through
Love is the H2 of the ocean
Love is your intuition in motion
Love is my daily new notions of you

Cause we build these giant monuments to love
And we make the rules that guarantee connection from above
And we babble builders still don’t understand
That the love we search for isn’t far away, it’s in our hands


Love is the background radiation
Love is the best foundation’s foundation
Love is the soft sound heard when conversation is through
Love is the H2 of the ocean
Love is your intuition in motion
Love my daily new notions of you

Polymath. Jack of all trades. Empath. I have a vast array of life experiences. Each one has given me something to say about relationships, spirituality, the environment, and the interconnectedness of all things.

Starting a nonprofit, adopting three kiddos, living all over the world, earning multiple degrees, falling in love, losing and gaining spiritual beliefs; it's all bubbling out of me now in the art I create.
