Saturday Afternoon with a Songstress

I just spent the most delightful hour that I could have passed with my beautiful friend, singer/songwriter Kelly Bazely. She's in New York and I'm in Nova Scotia, but through the wonderful magic of live streams, I was able to watch her performance at Cafe Vivaldi from my home. Later on in Kelly's set, the sun began to go down over Halifax, the clouds outlined in a soft pink. Her songs reached my soul and reminded me of the constant fight of us dreamers, how we need to keep our arms stretched out, because every day, we get a little closer to soaring. This beautiful soul creates wonder simply by breathing her songs into existence. She is so incredible because her power is unassuming and her heart is a strength that inspires us all, transmitted softly and yet, you can't help but be encompassed by it. To have you in my life, dear Kelly Bazely, is to have a forever blessing.
