Angel Hours

And just as I typed that last post, I look at my phone and it's 4:44 - the repeating of numbers that signifies one's guardian angel. You really do always find me, don't you, my little sweetheart?

As I Dream of You, We Dream Together

Little sweetheart, even before the album took its name, I called this photo of us "Dream Together". It's      been another emotional difficult year, as I write these words on its last day. But my love for and faith in you remains steadfast. Even this very blog has been difficult this year, with technical issues and the resources to maintain. But even if posting here was light, my thoughts fly to you. You're in my work, you're in my heart, you keep me going. You always liked to say, rather than we "met", that you "found" me. Please keep finding me, little sweetheart. With love - your Michael

Also at Christmastime

Here's the video of the Christmas song I wrote for you many years ago - "It's Christmas, Sweetheart". With love & faith... your Michael 

December 24th

Little sweetheart, it's Christmas Eve. I'm so glad I got to spend Christmas with you! I keep many of the customs you taught me and your very first Christmas letter to me - that came with the beautiful blue and grey scarf you made and gave me that year - hangs in a frame here over my desk. This picture was taken of you on our roof on a snowy day just before Christmas that year. Thinking of you tonight and always. Happy Christmas, little sweetheart!

 

First Snow of the Year

Little sweetheart, we took this picture together on the roof just a little bit before Christmas in 2008. You'd just closed the Boston run of Rock n Roll and came here for a week before flying to California to spend the holidays with your folks. A black and white version of this photo was our Christmas card for many years and I still think of it every season. We were sitting here together in the front room on the old plaid couch and noticed that it was snowing, so we bundled up and went to the roof. Merry Christmas, little sweetheart. 

More for You (always)

Little sweetheart, I try not to post too much about our ongoing project, Bipolar Explorer. Although it very much remains ours - you are, after all, its co-founder and all subsequent releases are of, for and about you - I try to focus solely on you. 

That said, we do have an new album out today, our 12th, another double-album - Memories of the Sky. You are featured as always and also very much the inspiration for it. It's been very warmly received. 

For you, always...
