How exciting, Mari! Good for you and Michael! The flier is very nice, and it is a touching tale you tell about your love of this historic edifice. All of my best wishes go to you both in this endeavor. May it be successful beyond everyone's wildest dreams.

The experience you describe is a succinct and elevating tale of what true spirituality and religious revelation is all about. The uplifting of the human soul, the gaining of the realization that you are a part of larger whole, and that none of us walk alone is a tremendous gift...and that gift is not the specific province of any one religion or any particular deity.

As for Michael being "almost as good" as me, well, if he plays classical and Spanish guitar, I assure you in no uncertain terms that he is by far the better artiste. I'm a hack, I know I'm a hack, and I'm okay with that. The skill and discipline required to play what he plays is beyond anything I ever dared attempt, and I hope I get to hear his work some day soon.
