A Sara Hickman eNewsletter for December 24, 2008

Happy New Year, Everyone I love!

Yes, this means you, even if I don't know you, or you live in a town far away and I haven't had the honor of coming to play there, yet...I do! I love and celebrate YOU! As soon as I put air in my new bike tires (the new bike I am hoping Santa will bring!), I am throwing my guitar on my bike and headin' your way!

This is an end of 2008 letter to say THANK YOU. For supporting my music, my live shows, my family. But, even more so, to thank you for all you do with your family, with your friends, in your community. Over the years, I've noticed something about the folks that come to my shows...it seems to me that I attract caring, intelligent, comedic, concerned and action-oriented people...and that makes my heart happy because it is an honor to know so many of you and all the sublime joy you bring to this world.

So...Thank YOU. I applaud you with my whole heart and soul!

May 2009 include:

*Continued thoughtful awareness and growth in conciousness for each of us
*The ability for people to barter their gifts and talents so that more people can grow in the abundance of who they are and what makes them special without having to rely on money as their sole resource
*More communication between world leaders that leads to peaceful resolutions and thoughtful awareness and growth
*More laughter
*More time for picnics!

And, if you happen to be out and about and want to share some music, come out to these upcoming gigs:
