Constant Chaos

I'm in utter disbelief that the conflict between Israel and Lebanon has escalated with such rapidity since Wednesday. But I'm even more astounded at the lack of influence that the UN and individual countries have to bring about a cease fire. The Middle East seems to always be a hotspot for violence, vengeance and the imprints of wars past. Oftentimes it seems that leaders and citizens would be confounded if true peace were ever to be established. When I see conflicts such as this Haifa "war" I wonder what someone like Ghandi would offer as a step towards peace. It seems that even when there is little warfare there is still no true peace because there's a lack of respect and understanding on all side. Are Ghandi's principals null and void in this age? I don't want to believe so.

I'm still working on my new songs and it's coming along but never as quickly as I want it to. Every project or event in my life definitely has it's own flow. I've learned that pushing an experience too quickly is just as detrimental as allowing it to float on endlessly. However, I plan to have a new project completed in the spring of 2007. I'm working on some performance dates in the Northeast and even overseas. Until next time!
