Profound Gratitude!

When this Love Streams project first emerged in early February, we really had no idea what would happen. The process of creating the CD was fun and easy, and an experience of love and joy. The journey since has been magical. The money raised to support Ilene in her journey of transformation and healing was very important (actually a critical need) but also the streaming of love from all of you to Conrad and Ilene has been powerful and wonderful.

We continue to send money to them from the Love Streams project and sent another $500 yesterday (Monday). Thank you especially to Melissa Van Cleave, Jennifer Patterson, Diane Shafer-King, Beverly Rieger, and Ann Beeching who are selling CDs through their own businesses. And....the silent auction held here in Fort Wayne for Ilene's medical expenses was a success thanks to the very hard work of Elizabeth and Raymond Moon-Gabet.

Ilene is back out of the hospital, home, and doing very well. However....they just incurred another week of hospital expenses.

From Beverly, here is a statement to date for you of the Love Streams CD project:

We have $50 left in the Love Streams account. We have sold 153 CDs to date, replaced a defective CD, and given 2 to businesses for marketing purposes. We have 174 still in stock or on consignment with various people and with CD Baby. This equals our initial stock of 330. We have also received donations of $163.50 over and above sales.

When we sell the remaining 174, we will have given Ilene and Conrad an additional $3500. Can we do this? If you are receiving this blog, you probably have already purchased one or many CDs of Love Streams, and have also probably donated to Ilene and Conrad in many other ways. However, maybe you can still help.

Here are some ideas:

This is healing music. Would your massage therapist, reiki practitioner, etc. like a copy or would they place them on display for their clients?

This is beautiful music with many different types of music included, recorded by excellent musicians. I sent a letter to all of my relatives (I have a LOT of relatives!) because they would enjoy the music even if they don't know Conrad and Ilene. They are also willing to support me in my efforts to help a friend in need.

I sent a notice to my customers who love my music, and my music is on this CD.

If you are on Facebook or Twitter, keep posting about this project. People have very short memories and need to be reminded. The professional business consensus is that you need to remind people 7 times before they will actually purchase an item. So.....keep reminding!

To find information on ordering: go to the column at the right side of this blog.

Happy April 1rst! Emergence is all around us with the joy of new life. Love to all.
