Just thought you'd like to know....I'm visiting India. A few days ago our group was on a bus tour of Mumbai with some Indian friends. We sang "Circle of the Sun" for them...what fun! Your words and music were flowing into the air of Mumbai from the top of the open upper deck of the bus.

I am a mother of an 8-year-old girl who was recently inspired by your song "What Can One Little Person Do?" She wanted to use part of one of the verses at a Women's Peace March in Lansing, MI on Saturday. She liked the peaceful words and the use of the female pronouns. Thank you for your work!
