re: Visions & Voices CD

I got a wonderful email this morning from Paula, and I just want to share it with you. She was listening to Visions & Voices CD on her way in to work this morning and it caused something to shift, to transform…

=========

Dear Mark,

I want to share with you the most freakin’ amazing experience I had this morning.

I was listening to your “Visions & Voices” CD on my way into work.
And when I arrived at work, I felt like I had been on retreat for a week.
My whole being feels what I can only describe as divine ecstasy.   Just filled with such an overflowing love, peace, joy, and happiness.   I feel like a kid bouncing around with such joy that can’t be contained.  I just want to run and dance and climb mountains and stand at the top of the mountain and embrace the entire universe!    And tell the whole world just how much they are loved by Spirit.   We can only feel the merest glimmer of Spirit’s love, Spirit’s love is so great we are not capable of absorbing just how much Spirit loves us!   It makes me catch my breath!
Thank you thank you Mark, for being such a willing and powerful conduit of Spirit’s love!
I have placed an order with the universal kitchen that Spirit will send your music to the world in such a way that everyone stops and listens and feels Spirit’s love in the same way.    It’s almost overwhelming — I have tears of joy in my eyes.    I give gratitude to Spirit for providing the launch so that everyone can feel how I feel now.
I am feeling the need for new words, as current words cannot even begin to express how I feel.
Thank you for this retreat, which by the human clock was about 40 minutes at most, but in soul-time was at least a week.   I find it so hard to believe my ride was only 40 minutes.   I feel like someone returning home after a 3-month journey.
Thank you thank you thank you!
-Paula
Here’s the track that inspired the CD title:

BTW I recorded Visions and Voices back in the 1990’s. I must have sold at least of dozen of them over the years. My deepest desire is to share these songs with more people like Paula. So thank you Paula for listening and for letting me know how the tunes of been helpful or transformative.

– Mark

p.s. there are still a few tickets left for my November 19th “Last Concert” Get them now!

Never fails to move me…

You write some great songs!

Hi Mark, You write some great songs! I really enjoyed listening to all of them on Spark and Flame. Thank you for all that you do. Keep up the good work! All the best.

Susan

Enjoying your songs so much…

Hello Mark. I am enjoying your songs so much! I’d love to see you play live somewhere.

Marianne

Been singing the chorus since the first day I heard it…

I sh*t you not when I say I’ve been singing the chorus to Honest Rock since the first day I heard it. I sing this every single day. Many times a day. Seriously. It’s like a mantra to me. It soothes me:-)

Gene Moore

I Love listening to all your songs…

Mark, you really are an amazing songwriter! I Love listening to all your songs and sitting in the creative aura they create!

Cheri

For me these songs are transformational lessons in self-love…

Dear Mark, THANK YOU for sending *Spark & Flame*!!!! This CD certainly is a compilation of Conscious Love Songs! As I listen I am transported to memory after memory past, present and future, fulfilled and unfulfilled. I was flooded with many different emotions. I cried, laughed, held my breath and also breathed deep heart-centered breaths of connection to the Divine. I feel joy, grief, sadness, compassion, love, awe, freedom, kindness, gratitude and appreciation. For me these songs are transformational lessons in self-love, releasing, acceptance for what was, what is and who I am. Knowing that I am enough and that I am Divinely Loved.

Love your lyrics!

Love your music! Love your lyrics!

Robin Bridgeford

You have put a grown man in tears…

Mark, this song and message really hit home for me today. You have put a grown man in tears. Thank You for what you do. Sometimes I think you sound kind of cheesy, and then others, I think you are a genius, and I’m beginning to realize that you actually care about helping people. So hard to “get out of your own way” sometimes…thanks for the reminder.

Jeremy
