Joy is what happens when we allow ourselves to recognise how good things really are. - Marianne Williamson,

Let freedom reign. The sun never set on so glorious a human achievement. - Nelson Mandela,

I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think. - Socrates

Valerie has gathered songs from many ages and diverse places. She fell in love with oral tradition community singing in the Willamette Valley of Oregon. She calls the Sonoran Desert home. She is honored to share songs that bring us together into community...communion and unity with ourselves and all of life.
