Inspiration and Fulfillment, and a Few Setbacks! Jill and I decided we would write a script together for people who are experiencing difficult times, whether they be time in a hospital, periods of pain, depression, grieving, or existential suffering, we hope that this product will provide relief and comfort. We very nearly named it "A Comfort Blanket for the Soul." When we wrote it we both had an incredible experience, and we both felt we were drawing on our own experiences of serious illness and recovery from it, and our experience of spiritual practice, with all of the books and teachings we have received somehow coming together and flowing into a beautiful gift for people in times of suffering. The CD is full of gentle reminders of simple spiritual truths, metaphors from nature and spiritual teachings of many types. We both felt that making this was possibly the most fulfilling experience we have had. We recorded it and had a similarly moving experience, and Jill's voice is so full of compassion and tenderness. I then set it to music, and I did this during a night shift in a probation hostel, literally listening and improvising as I felt moved by the words. The result ended up to be quite simple but beautiful music, and it really felt as if something was coming through me rather than something being created by me. When we listened to it together we were very moved, and feel that something very wonderful has come into being. Unfortunately there was then a series of technical difficulties, and problems came to light with the original recording, before my computer died on me! So we are faced with having to rerecord it, and set the music to it again. I just hope we can capture the same magic! |
