I read recently that the term "gaslighting" was the number one search in Merriam Webster's Dictionary this year. So this song is dedicated to all of us who have stood up to that over the years... especially my very besties... you know who you…
Outstanding and thought provoking. Gaslighting has permeated our society lately and finally it looks like some of the people responsible might be getting the recognition they deserve.
ON CHRISTMAS DAY
So glad that you are here with me
On Christmas Day, on Christmas Day

What remains of an eagle that's fallen

You are one of the most beautiful people I know. I love your soul. She was an amazing person too, and, yes, had a beautiful voice.
