It’s November 13th, 2024; This is it! This is the HIT song!!! Yes, this is the song that drives home everything Richard and I are ALL about! Music is healing! Woo-hoo! This fusion of modern country and rock will get you moving and groovin’! This is definitely one of our best original songs.
This is the three-hundred-sixteenth new music post for 2024! Richard put it ALL in this original song. And we’re ever so blessed to have had Adam Cunningham led his strong soulful vocals on it. Music is healing is on my YouTube dance break playlist! This radio-ready hit was produced by the exceptional Beaird Music Group of Nashville, TN. https://www.beairdmusicgroup.com
Speaking of my YouTube channel playlists, here’s my dance break list of 31 original songs

Multifaceted
I love crystals and kaleidoscopes because they are multifaceted. I find the beauty in the broken pieces. That’s what I do.
I bought myself two new crystals for Christmas. The large multifaceted one is an Agate; it’s a light purple color similar to an amethyst. The darker crystal is an Ocean Jasper. It looks beautiful in the daylight and has a lot of small shiny parts. I love it for a crystal grid or gaze into during meditation. –Sheila Murrey

It’s November 12th, 2024; We have a fun, yet thoughtful story song for you today. On the one hand, it makes me want to examine the not-so-good past relationships, and on the other hand, I ponder how often we put people on a pedestal only to be let down by them.
This is the three-hundred-fifteenth new music post for 2024! Richard penned this eye-opening song a few years ago, but I believe its message is timeless. Paul Pace sings this powerful, yet fun, relationship song. My name ain’t Jesus was professionally produced by the Beaird Music Group of Nashville, TN.
I am a bit late posting my song-of-the-day blog because Life got in the way. I can’t tell you about it because it’s not my story to tell, but suffice to say a friend was in need. I often have a world of advice to give, but then I have learned when I do, it’s like I’ve put my finger in the pool of water. The ripples extend out in all directions and I never know what will or won’t be helpful. Or which ripple is going to come back and bit me in the arse! Ha!
I’ll keep this short and give you a couple of requested videos. The first is one that casts a compassionate light on President Trump. Yes, one of my friends is going through that currently, saying she’s never heard him have a kind or compassionate word to say about ANYONE. On the face of that comment I knew it couldn’t be true, because I know each human is multifaceted. And I know some people do kind things but don’t want to take any credit. Some, I suspect like President Trump, know that others would say he’s doing this or that kind gesture for the publicity. And of course, there’s a good deal of truth in such statements.
The second video is a story about Eric Clapton that I never knew. I have always loved his music, but WOW! I had no idea he was raised by his grandparents and grew up not knowing his sister was his mom! Sometimes, how people are raised, does make a huge difference in how they live out their lives. Thankfully, Eric took his pain and made it art, after picking up a guitar and letting us all see his soul. After you watch this, you’ll see why I shared it on a day that I am reflecting upon our song, My name ain’t Jesus. And how human we ALL are.

It’s November 11th, 2024; On this Veteran’s Day I want to honor the soldier. I offer this song as a means of reverence to soldiers who leave their families to fight for God and country. To fight for Freedom, Liberty, and Justice. God bless the soldier!
This is the three-hundred-fourteenth new music post for 2024! This is a powerful story song. It always brings a tear to my eye. Adam Cunningham lends his soulful voice on this pro demo, radio-ready song and I doubt anyone could do it better. He doesn’t have the heart was skillfully produced by the Beaird Music Group of Nashville, TN.
He doesn’t have the heart. Music, lyrics, and video by Richard Murrey.
I think HONOR has been vastly devalued over the last thirty years or so. Granted, the people at the top of our government should earn our respect. And in my lifetime, we’ve had presidents who have LIED under oath and to the American people, and devalued the Presidential office. We’ve also had trusted advisors LIE to us. It’s hard to respect people or the office, when so many have blatantly lied, much less honor them. And to me, that’s why so many people went to Washington, D.C. on January 6th to peacefully assemble and protest. Some of those peaceful protestors were VETERANS! Many are still in jail too. I wasn’t there, but from the longer videos I’ve seen, not just the short clips the mainstream media put out, I think we’ve been LIED to again, on that subject.
I think most of us need to read the U.S. Constitution again with a critical eye, and really sit with it. Meditate on it. And consider the importance of the Freedom of Speech, and all of the rights provided to us in our U.S. Constitution. Only then will we begin to glimpse the importance of our right to speak our minds, write our blog posts, and peacefully protest and assemble.
I am sharing (reblogging) posts from some of my favorite bloggers who are Veteran’s and who speak their minds, and share their stories. I hope you can find some time over the next few days to read those. With humility, Thank you.
P.S. If you have access to the pay TV channel, Paramount Plus, check out the series, Lioness. I have watched this series several times and cried simply considering the sacrifices our soldiers and assets have made to continue to support our U.S. Constitution and protect our freedoms.

Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car).
Oh, today’s writing prompt rubs the proverbial scab off the wound for me today!
I spent $12k on an annual business coaching program (in 2019) which I may have gotten a few hundred dollars of benefit from. I made this outlandish purchase because I had never met someone of the coach’s caliber (he had ‘connections’ in Hollywood because his dad was a screen writer and had written some of my favorite movies), and because my job had told me I would be laid off in a couple of months. So, I guess I must admit fear and greed drove my decision. Boy, have I regretted it ever since!
I didn’t end up getting laid off, so I had no time to focus soley on the business program as I had planned, but since I signed a contract, I felt obligated to continue (and make the monthly payments I had agreed to make).
I enjoyed the Zoom calls we had and I did meet some exceptional people (a few I am still in contact with), but the coach couldn’t control the group and didn’t add much. I think my husband and I had two or three one-on-one calls with him. I had thought we would get a monthly call with him. He gave everyone a roadmap on how to plan out a business launch. And he gave us call scripts for how to sell others on hiring us as a coach. But I never wanted to be a coach, I wanted to get our original songs in a movie or TV show.
I would have been better off to have hired a song publicist.
Then again, my husband hired a song manager who ended up scamming him out of thousands of dollars and then moved to Mexico.
I suppose I am too gullible to run our own business. Nor am I a salesperson. Lessons learned!
It’s November 9th, 2024; We’ve got a hot new original rock song for you. It’s all about skin! Bubba Hudson offered his great vocals on this pro demo and the smart edgy production is from Steven Cooper of Nashville, TN.
This is the three-hundred-twelfth new music post for 2024! I always believe unless you have ‘skin in the game’ you have no right to complain. But let’s see what you think:
I think you’ve got to put some skin in the game if you want to help people. I’m willing.
I announced my new blog categories in yesterday’s post. Let me give you a high-level brief on what I have planned to add to this blog in 2025. And I must tell you that I will be doing some clean-up of my blog next year, because I’m at 50% capacity here in WordPress and I’m not going to put anymore money into this site to increase that. So, I’ll be removing some images and posts, and streamlining it. I don’t know how many more years I can keep this going, at least, not unless I begin selling more books, or adding the ‘buy me a coffee’ type thing so I can at least make $100 a year from this venture. Just keep this in mind.
Moral ambiguities
From movies, to TV shows, to the books I read, I love moral ambiguities. I think it’s because of all the BS I’ve been through in my life. And how much love and grace I’ve received from those who didn’t judge me at the time. I know each of us can change where we are because I’ve changed. Perhaps by the grace of Omniscience God, or simply because how I was living at any given point in time wasn’t working. Considering life through the lens of moral ambiguities open me to greater perspectives.
Self reflection
As Don Henley suggested in his album, Inside Job, “It’s all an inside job.” We must self reflect if we ever hope to offer ourselves and each other grace. I know I’m here to teach and help others live with more ease and grace. This doesn’t just apply to those who think they’re all full of ‘love and light,’ this applies to ALL. We’re supposed to be unifying, right? We’re the change we’ve been waiting for and I still believe we can COEXIST! So, let’s do this! Love yourself and each other. If you don’t love yourself, start here and work on that: https://sheilamurrey.net/2016/12/31/natural-health-relief-from-anxiety-using-eft-tapping/
Mirrorball perspective
I’m happy to offer a philosophy and practical method of using a mirrorball to observe and obtain new perspectives and open ourselves to new ways to understand and communicate with others who see life differently from ourselves. This helps us have more empathy and offer grace to ALL. I feel I understand people better because I dance on the edge of perception under the mirrorball.
Kaleidoscope teaching
The kaleidoscope method I teach is similar to the mirrorball, but we get into fractals and divine design of things in nature. The broken parts of us are useful within the design of our bodies and lives. Actually, when we expand our perception we come to know the broken pieces create the design! Nobody’s ‘perfect.’ There’s no perfection in art.
Multifaceted
I love exploring and talking about the multifaceted parts of life. Again, the kaleidoscope is probably the best example of everything I could say on the subject of living a multifaceted life. And loving it!

This new category will be one where I’ll explore and uncover The Stranger Things kind of stuff and I’ll share some blogs, YouTube videos and more of the stuff I read and watch that continues to sharpen my brain and expand my consciousness. I’m sure we’ll get into Sci Fi, conversations about aliens, and maybe even X-Files and Men in Black type stuff. I’ll debunk whatever I can, or point to YouTube channels like, The Why Files. But this could be an entire blog. And I want to get into it.
As for me and my house, we’ll listen to our inner Truth. I practice what I preach.

This is the three-hundred-eleventh new music post for 2024! I had a dentist appointment today and was wondering what I might write about this song. I shared three posts just prior to this that I thought might explain–but you have to read between the lines and connect the dots. I feel Jimi Hendrix might approve since I have always felt he was a metaphysical kind of guy. Well, Jimi and Prince both.
I am also metaphysical. In fact, I am adding several new categories to this blog site. One might say the category of Metaphysical would be enough, but I want to dive deeper into each of these in 2025.
Now that the USA Presidential Election is over, it is time to set my sights on the work at hand. Finish my 5th book, wrap up these daily music blog posts, and focus my thoughts on favorable impressions, kindness, and compassion towards helping to heal the divide.
I believe the next four years can be unifying, but of course, all those who hold onto bitterness and hate must be willing to look into the mirrored walls of self-reflection and allow the healing to occur. Everything I have learned from my master teachers will be needed now. Both to heal my own heart (from the feelings of being let down by my ‘love & light’ friends), exude humility and love (I am far from spotless so I can only offer grace from that place), and be willing freely give the mirror ball and kaleidoscope teachings to ALL who want to learn. These principles and methods have been used for several years now, tested through the fires. They are healing. If one is open to receive.

It’s November 7th, 2024; We’ve got a new original country song for some today. I think she’s thinkin’ is a fun song and it might even put a smile on your face–I know that’s hard for some of you right now. Vocals by Bubba Hudson. Song production by Steven Cooper of Nashville, TN.
This is the three-hundred-tenth new music post for 2024! Richard has always told me I care too much about what other people are thinking, and a phone call with my uncle Jim yesterday, brought that to my mind as well.
My uncle Jim is a minister of a branch of Latter Day Saints (He is in the Remnant church). And he carefully chooses his words, so as not to hurt there people’s feelings. We have always talked openly about politics and religion. So, it surprised me to know he’d said something to one of my first cousins that he later was concerned about. He’d told her, “A vote for the Democratic Presidential candidate was a vote for the death of America; a vote for the Republican Presidential candidate was a vote for the life of America.” And then she told him she and her family are Democrats. What I loved about this discourse was that she listened politely to him and then simply answered. There was no argument or divisive words. Thankfully. He told me he would never want to sever a familial relationship over politics. And that sets the stage for what I am about to say.
Braver Angels
I have a friend who lives in Indiana and serves within his states Braver Angels commUnity. If you’re not aware of this organization, read this email I received from him this morning (to his email list). It will give you some insight:
Becoming a Braver Angel – Post Election
It’s Election Day and depolarizing may be the last thing on your mind! But it is more important than ever to learn to talk with each other in order to govern our communities and country. This is why I am a volunteer with the non-profit organization Braver Angels and why I believe you are on this mailing list.
I have a question: Is polarization an addiction? And what does healing mean in a post-election America? Does that look different for liberals and conservatives?
Pondering on what “healing” means for our country, I thought about the success of 12 step recovery programs. I searched “What are the 12 principles of recovery?” and it said – honesty, hope, surrender, courage, integrity, willingness, humility, love, responsibility, discipline, awareness, and service.
Wow! Commenting on each of these would be an article on it’s own. But what I really want to know is what is YOUR perspective on polarization as an addiction? What do these 12 principles (which represents the 12 steps of recovery) mean to you? Reply to this email or give me a text or call at (812) 361-0067. Or let me know if you want a private online group to chat about it (e.g. NOT social media).
After the elections, regardless of who wins, we will all need to show compassion and a willingness to understand other people’s perspectives in order to solve the problems facing us. On July 28 we began the “100 Days the Braver Angles Way” campaign leading up to today’s election. My role is as Indiana Volunteer Coordinator, but it is you who has to take initiative and let me know how you want to participate.
And getting involved is now what I am asking you to do! As a grassroots social movement it is up to each of us as individuals to act. As a state coordinator I may be in a leadership position, but I do NOT believe in a top-down approach. Instead, I encourage you to empower yourself by utilizing the tools Braver Angels provides to guide us into relationship with each other.
So, below is a call-to-action to get you started in figuring out what your part is for healing our country. Your journey begins with becoming a member, if you are not already. Then log into the members portal and explore what looks good to you; getting trained as an organizer, learning to be a workshop moderator, pursuing an interest like starting a book club, or coming up with your own idea and running with it! And, as always, donating to the cause is always needed and appreciated.
As for me and my house, we’ll listen to our inner Truth. I practice what I preach.

Richard and I play at the intersection of Energy, Spirituality, Health, and Music, to let FREEDOM ring for ALL!
We’re songwriters open to placing any of our 400+ original songs in TV, film, games, etc. We’re also seeking bands to play our songs. Video content creators, filmmakers, podcasters, production companies, deejays, Vloggers, YouTubers, and more can use our original music and songs in movies, TV shows, video intros, and such. Everything is available at: Listen4Music.com
My husband of 19 years, Richard Murrey, is an award-winning illustrator, plus he’s a seasoned guitarist, bass player, and songwriter (having penned over 400 original songs). You can view his artwork and hear original songs at: http://listen4music.com
It’s November 6th, 2024; We’ve got a new original country song; it’s a personal song because my husband has written songs on such a variety of topics. Like me, Richard views life from myriad perspectives. I’ll send it out to ALL songwriters who haven’t hit it big. Bubba Hudson sings this song well. And Steven Cooper (Nashville, TN) did a fine job on the song’s production.
This is the three-hundred-ninth new music post for 2024! This song has always reminded me a bit of Barry Manilow’s song, I write the songs. My husband doesn’t have a big Ego though. In fact, he’s one of the most humble guys I know.
Songs I could have wrote. Music and lyrics by Richard Murrey.
Today’s a day of rest for us, after a very late night of watching election results and believing for the future well-being of America. I was hopeful the country would come together and it seems they have. The PEOPLE have spoken!
NPR Presidential race results: Nov 6, 2024
As I wrote yesterday, I was a career analyst for over three decades. I am wired to figure things out and it’s easy for me to ‘connect the dots’. But I have tried on many perspectives in my 62 years on the earth, and I know I continue to change and transform, based on how the outcomes work out. I live and learn. And I am humble enough to know, I am not always right, and thus, I don’t get too worked up over things when they don’t go in my favor. I hope my friends on the Left will be able to take a fresh look at President Trump, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Elon Musk, and Tulsi Gabbard. I truly believe we’re going to experience a LOT of great things to come, NOW that this Presidential race and election is over and we can focus on making America HEALTHY again. No censorship. No cancel culture.
We watched all three hours of this last night, Live on YouTube:
Elon Musk
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
Love your heart
Screen capture: “The human heart is not what they have led you to believe. The human heart is in the shape of a tetrahedron, the most stable and fundamental shape of all geometric shapes. The heart contains 40,000 neurons and communicates emotional states with the brain using peptides…” –Angie Castillo via Mary Beth Janssen.

My meme: “I am drawn to using Super Patches to heal, from our experiences with Healing Touch, Reiki, Glyphs, Laying on of Hands, and meditation on the Intelligent Design of our fingerprints!” –Sheila Murrey
Everything happens for a reason
Yes, Everything Happens for a Reason and Everything Resolves to Gratitude. Knowing that each of us (as fractals) uplifts my mind and allows me to view life as a lively kaleidoscope grand design that moves about in an ever-expanding, revolving, melodious, consciousness. Even if we have to disconnect from some people, for a time.
Enjoy (IN Joy) everything and love! Be Everything All the Time. Let’s soar in ’24! And let’s (are you ready for this?) THRIVE in ’25!
Yours in expanding, learning and sharing, spiraling consciousness,

It’s November 5th, 2024; We’ve got a new original rock song for Election Day in the USA! Just make up your mind, cast your vote, and be done with it. Let the chips fall where they may and make no apologies. Bubba Hudson hammers the vocals home in this original song! Produced by the fantastic Steven Cooper of Nashville, TN.
This is the three-hundred-eighth new music post for 2024! I’ll make a few last political points next and then yes, I’ll leave it alone. Enjoy (IN Joy) the graphics Richard created for this music video as you listen to the song too:
No Apologies. Music and lyrics by Richard Murrey. Graphics inspired by Game of Thrones and video created by Richard Murrey.
I love Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and I love a lot about Elon Musk. Even more so after watching a few more videos about him yesterday. I hope you know we’re voting for a TEAM, not just one person. And I am only interested in politics now, because I realize it sets up the rules of the game for us ALL. Look at the wars. Look at the censorship. I have to speak up for Health Freedom, and for our better health in general. I’m a writer. It’s what I do. And I connect the dots. I was a career analyst for over three decades. I am wired to figure things out. But you don’t have to take my word for any of this. The proof is all around if you look at things from a different perspective.
Elon Musk
Screen capture: “Last election, I didn’t know a single independent/swing voter who was voting for Trump. This time, I don’t know anyone who isn’t. And one person after another has confided in me that they’re voting for Trump, but they’re afraid to say so publicly, because it will affect their friends/job/customers. Crushing defeat is coming for the oppressive, big government machine represented by the Kamala puppet.” –Elon Musk
If you’re on the side of censorship and cancel culture, then we are diametrically opposed. I know we’re all still part of the ONE whole, but we’re mirroring each other. We”re not beside each other. And that’s okay, because it takes every color of the tapestry to make the infinite design work. I just want you to know where I stand.
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
I think everyone has already decided who they want to vote for, and many have voted in early voting already. But if you haven’t seen these videos, they were some of my favorites and will (at the least), show you why I like these great men. Amen. Namaste. OM

It’s November 4th, 2024; We’ve got a new original rock song for those of us who feel manipulated, controlled, or such–how appropriate for this election season! Bubba Hudson nails the vocals in this original song! Produced by the exceptional Steven Cooper of Nashville, TN.
This is the three-hundred-seventh new music post for 2024! Richard wrote this song after the hurricane Katrina that hit New Orleans in 2005. At that point, we’d had three hurricanes in a row in 2004 and we were seeing how gaslit we all were–way before that word became common! Take a listen and see if y’all agree:
Y’all swallow this. Music and lyrics by Richard Murrey.
We can get through this, if we all stick together. That’s the problem, politics wants to divide us.
For our better health, we’ve got to wake up
I’m all for natural and holistic health. Something the current regime has PROVEN they DO NOT support! The Left is the party of Big Pharma. Hands down. So, yeah, I’ve got to get out and have fun. Spend time with family, And NOT talk politics or I’d lose my mind! And of course, I’ve got to blog. It’s cathartic for me. So, here’s more pictures from the fun my daughter and I had on Saturday afternoon, and then a sobering point at the end of the blog. Hang on! Tuesday’s coming! Haha!

I caught it but it bounced off my hand, so I wouldn’t eat it. But after the show, when they were doing the meet-and-greet and signing cards, shirts, and things, I asked Ryan if he’d play along for a photo with me. Ha! He’s such a great sport! When I walked away he said, “Well, that was no spaghetti!” Hahahaha! (A reference to the spaghetti sharing scene in Lady and the Tramp movie.) –Photo by my daughter, Marie.I’m talking with Justin and Quinn and was about to share the Super Patches with Justin (I had a pack of REM and Peace patches in my hoodie pocket.). –Photo by my daughter, Marie.My daughter and me before the show. –Selfie by my daughter, Marie.Marie and me at the start of the show. –Photo by my daughter, Marie.My daughter and I at Walt Disney World about 20 years ago. –Sheila Murrey
I have fun too! Funny health meme
Due to the rising costs of medical tests, all you can do is pee under a tree and wait for a bit: If ants gather, you’ve got diabetes. If the grass dries up, it’s high salts. If it smells like BBQ, you’ve got high cholesterol. And if you forget to pull up your pants, you’ve got Alzheimer’s. Lauging emojis. –Kathy Spaulding Hatfield and Marie Lawrence shared it but who knows who came up with it. I thought it was a hoot!I was raised by serious parents, and I do take our health very seriously. This is the main reason I am really hoping President Trump, RFK Jr. and Elon Musk get IN the White House so we can help turn the health of America around. This is an excellent meme from RFK Jr. Read it. Think about it. We’re not voting for a person in President Trump. We’re voting for a team. We’re voting for Health Freedom. We’re voting for regime change.
Super Patches for sleep
As for me and my house, we’ll listen to our inner Truth. I practice what I preach.

It’s November 3rd, 2024; We’ve got a new original rock song for you on this fantastic Sunday! Here’s another dance song to get your body moving! Bubba Hudson is back on vocals in this song and does such a great job! Produced by the wonderful Steven Cooper of Nashville, TN.
This is the three-hundred-sixth new music post for 2024! I’m blind (and I bet you are too) from all the political memes lately. Okay, I’ll give those a rest, and my mind a rest too! Let’s dance (to quote David Bowie). Haha!
Blindman in the sun. Music and lyrics by Richard Murrey.
Through all of the chaos, let’s all remember to be kind and dance!
Chaos & Kindness
My daughter and I had an abSOULute BLAST yesterday at the Recycled Percussion concert. We took a cab (after the Uber and Lyft didn’t work out–go figure, the city cab was less expensive and faster too!). We went 1.5 miles to the town center to the band’s own venue, The Cake, for a 2pm show. We sat in the front row and it was sooo worth it! (Yes, we wore ear plugs, and yes, we got free cookies when those got thrown out into the audience. Should they have thrown cake? Haha!)
I shot more video than still photos, so you’ll have to check those out in Facebook ‘reels,’ unless I can share them to Rumble, because YouTube won’t allow the music. I’ll share a couple of links to those, just in case you want to see. And here are some photos. I’ll include a very PAST photo of my daughter and I at the end too. It’s the abSOULute best, being able to hang out with her again!

Recycled Percussion
Recycled Percussion is all about drumming, show-stopping Live performances, and spreading Kindness! They made it big in Las Vegas a few years ago… they’ve played over 5,000 Las Vegas shows! A few months ago, Justin wrote this for the Boston Globe, and my name was on it too:
Part 1: Full page ad in The Boston Globe newspaper about KINDNESS –Justin Spencer of Recycled Percussion/Chaos & KindnessPart 2: My name is on this list somewhere. Haha! –Recycled Percussion/Chaos & Kindness
Time with family is priceless
I shared Super Patches with Justin after the show yesterday
As for me and my house, we’ll listen to our inner Truth. I practice what I preach.
