In my heid I have wanted to create connections and relationships that lead to more people hearing about and, over time, acting upon the idea of Homesong - A Small Gig Where You Live.

That takes time, and involves a lot of uncertainties and cul-de-sacs. And failures.

But, it turns out, connections and relationships are valuable and precious, aside from any grand plans that I, you, or anybody else may have. Who would have thunk it?

When it comes to changing culture, changing anything involving people (or the weather!), there are no definite outcomes anyway.

But when we launch our little ship of a new idea out into the real world, whether that be a song, a poem, a smile, or something more complex, there is a very good chance…simply because we didn’t keep it to ourselves…that at the very least we will make some welcome new friends and some helpful acquaintances.

And, because we tried, a little bit of dignity.

All of that is an achievement in itself.

Keep on launching.
