		<description><![CDATA[Two bedfellows that don’t belong together.   How many times have you felt “obligated” to do something?  And hated every minute of it?  I guess, with life, there’s always a measure of obligation, like, you do have to pay your bills and breathe and get dressed, but if one makes a habit of being “obliged” to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[How often do we as artists cry out to be heard, seen, noticed?  How often do we need to make our mark?  Affect others?  How often does the necessity hit that we need to create an effect on the world or curl up in a ball and die?  How often, too, do we shy away [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I probably have said this before – actually, everything I’ve said to this date has been said by others of far more stature than I.  But, here’s the deal:  all of this bears repeating…I know I need it said again and again.  If a ballerina didn’t go to class every day of her life, she [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I just finished looking at, and listening to a flash mob of an orchestra that is all over the internet now, playing a piece by Ravel called “Bolero”, and when it finished, I felt so empty because it was over.  And people who were in this Copenhagen train station had looks of loss as well.  [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, to tell the truth, EVERYONE’S…..Procrastination!  I know firsthand what it does because I live with it almost every day.  It eats up creativeness.  It eats up life, if you think about it!  Ok, you have your list of things to do.  You might get one or two things done on that list.  But then, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was just thinking back to when I was a little kid – quite a few years ago, now, but still, I recall the wonder that life held then.  Sort of like when I went to New York in search of my career in subsequent years.
