"The most connected conversations always start with a genuine curiosity around how we are first and foremost as individuals. When my good friends ask me this question in a slow way, it usually leads to a good cry and a deeper understanding of how we can help each other."

Winter sunsets are my favorite! The holiday season is in full swing in Chicago and I love it. The Christkindlmarket, zoolights, ice-skating, lights on the trees and of course lots of holiday music! What are your favorite holiday traditions? ||...

A little reminder

to always be kind to yourself.

Ever since July it seems like my world has constantly been an uphill battle with no rest in sight. With every unexpected blow came a new surprise, then another blow followed by more surprises.

No one tells you that life will be like this; a series of failures whether your fault or not that ultimately leads you to something else just to lead to more failures and more gain.

It’s like being on an endless merry-go-round of emotional and mental turmoil, but sometimes the ride stops just for a second for you to get your bearings again before, “BAM” the ride starts again.

I’m very lucky though. I have a husband that loves me, a roof over my head and somehow the will to continue to make music even when I’m feeling at my worst. I guess that’s the life as an artist; make art even when you feel like a failure. Overcome the odds with beauty.

So be kind. Be kind to yourself and the person sitting across from you at the cafe because you never know when the merry-go-round will stop just for a second and surprise you.

xoxo,

Daina
