Easy People

I love this song. It was written by my writing guide, the occupant of the Big Yellow House, my friend Nerissa Nields, who performs it here at the Iron Horse in Northampton with her sister Katrina, who sings like an angel. They are known as the Nields and I am glad I walked into Nerissa's house one evening a few years ago, to begin to write.
.
The song makes me want to cry, I think because I wish Easy People for myself and for everyone I love and for that matter for everyone.
.
I'll let Nerissa and Katrina say the rest.
.
Note: why I cannot figure out how to properly copy paste a video is a small mystery, but this is the best I could do. Forgive me, Nerissa, for being left of center. But thanks to Marianne, I can advise you to double click on the video and you will have the pleasure of a full screen!

  5. Ah, KJ.....you KNOW I cried as watched this video...(insert "flapping hand" gestures here)....such beautiful, true words...

    Wouldn't it be great if everyone we knew WAS an "Easy Person"? Sigh.... but it sadly isn't always the way of the world... still, we must continue to go forward and love and hope and live....

    Love your new Avatar photo!!! Wow - KJB! And....back to "The Light Stays On" Casting....Glenn Close gets my vote!

    MUWAH!!!!

    Love to you, JB amd of course, Stella!!!!

  8. Hi Hunny i just popped in to give you a (((Hug)))

    ...and (Ps) When you add the clip, just look at the width measurement (there are two of them)and reduce them (ie) if it is 640 change it to 340... Find the measurement that looks right for your blog *kisses*
