Continuing to discuss the multifaceted issue of how to accept/utilize AI…
A lot of people are bothered by Artificial Intelligence (AI), especially when used within spiritual circles. But here’s Mike Dooley on the subject:

It may be another hard truth to hear… but it seems AI is here to stay.
Don’t let any THING steal your joy.
Yours in consciousness-expansion as we evolve and revolve during our mystical awakening. All while doing-my-egoless-best, to take you on a limitless, spiraling thought ride to better health, through doing more with ease, to help us sustain the JOY in our lives! (With lots of Gratitude throughout.)

About us
My husband is an award-winning illustrator, plus he’s a seasoned guitarist, bass player, and songwriter (with over 400 original songs). You can view some of his artwork and listen to many of his songs at: https://www.youtube.com/user/richardmurrey
We handed a USB thumb drive to someone new the other day to get a gauge on how Richard’s songs are liked. We will ask the gentleman in a couple of weeks when we see him again if he liked the songs.
Richard wants to create stuff people want. If no one’s interested, he wants to start a new hobby.
And I am starting to create more songs on another AI song platform because Suno AI has totally wrecked my account (and I can’t access it anymore). (I have written them twice and put in a help ticket with them about it.)
Everything happens for a reason in the multiverse with myriad sides to every story
Yes, Everything Happens for a Reason in the multiverse 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 THRIVE in ’25!
Yours in expanding, coexisting (because there’s more than one-side to every story), balancing, spiraling consciousness,

An Open Letter to Those Who Think AI Art Isn’t Human Art
By Richard Murrey, a Songwriter, Artist, and Storyteller Who’s Seen It All
I’ve spent over 50 years creating.
Songs. Paintings. Stories.
But because there was something in me that needed to be shared with the world.
Not for fame. Not for fortune.
Today, I hear a lot of talk—especially from legal voices and internet critics—that “AI art isn’t real art,” that “you can’t copyright AI-generated work,” because, they say, it wasn’t made by a human.
To that, I say: You’ve missed the point entirely.
Yes, I use AI tools. I write songs with them. I bring old dreams to life with them.
But I don’t just press a button and walk away. I craft. I sculpt. I prompt.
And here’s what you don’t understand unless you’ve done it yourself:
The prompt is not a command—it’s a vision.
It’s a carefully chosen string of words, informed by a lifetime of experience.
It’s storytelling.
It’s composition.
It’s intention.
It’s authorship.
When I write a prompt, I’m not automating creativity—I’m collaborating with a tool. Just like a painter uses brushes. Just like a songwriter uses a guitar.
The brush doesn’t paint the picture.
The guitar doesn’t write the song.
And the AI doesn’t dream the dream.
I do.
Every prompt I write carries my voice. My style. My soul.
If you’ve never felt the rush of getting just the right tone, the right image, the right line from an AI that you guided into shape—then I understand why you might think it’s magic.
But let me assure you—it’s not magic. It’s craft.
And if copyright law doesn’t recognize that?
Well, then maybe it’s not the art that needs redefining.
Maybe it’s the law.
Richard Murrey
A creator who’s still evolving
Still dreaming
Still writing
Even if the skies have turned to brass
Written by the man behind 704 original tunes, 711 videos, and not done yet.
Art and music can help
It don’t have to rhyme. —Richard Murrey
Yours in expanding, revolving, limitless, spiraling consciousness,
To our better health, ease, and sustaining lives of JOY!

About us
My husband is an award-winning illustrator, plus he’s a seasoned guitarist, bass player, and songwriter (with over 400 original songs).
Things continue moving fast for us. We’ve been well, but my daughter’s family (specifically, her twin daughters and husband have been ill), plus my best friend since 4th grade has been in the hospital (she’s home now, thank Omniscience God!), and now, one of my blogger pals, Linda (and her husband) are in the hospital–https://creativeartworksblog.wordpress.com/2025/02/07/still-alive-but-in-hospital/.
Yes, I probably do THINK too much about others, even people I don’t know personally, but that’s who I am. I am learning about Ontology now though, yes, it’s a thing and it’s research for my 5th book, so there’s that. I wanted to rush outside and TOUCH the wood-burned artwork I bought from Linda (but it was about 10 degrees out on our sun porch where it’s hanging) and it was after 11pm at night when I read her post. Ugh! I always send out waves of healing love though (when I’m not triggered about something), and I’ve had a couple of instances of getting triggered this week too! Spiral thought: I’m always working on my Self.
Whew! Big breath!
So, I’ve been creating but not sharing on here about all that’s gone on. I know you ‘get it’ and are probably even glad I’m not blogging every day like I was last year. But if you follow me on Facebook, LinkedIn, Rumble, or subscribe to our YouTube channels, you’ll get notified each time Richard or I publish a new music video and from what I’ve read from a few of you, that’s probably better anyway. LOL
I’m going to share a few YouTube videos with you, some are my new ones, and a few are about AI music generation. Before you use the link at the bottom (that I’ve shared since I began this new AI songwriting endeavor), There’s a few things to note:
Suffice to say, read the Terms of Service. We won’t put any of our original songs (that we wrote both the music and lyrics for years ago and paid music studios to make pro demos for) on any AI app! Apparently, once you do that, it becomes a nightmare for copyright, and probably the original lyrics become part of the lyrics and musid that the AI reuses in part! It’s messy!
Apparently, the music labels and catalog owners are duking all this out in court because Suno AI and other AI music generation companies ’trained’ their AI algorithms on music readily available on the open internet. Ugh Nothing is safe anymore.
Touching Ancient Stones. Mostly my lyrics, but some are from Suno AI. The music is 100% Suno AI. –Sheila Murrey
Objects in the Mirror. Mostly my lyrics (I wrote the lyrics to this song many years ago), but I did use some suggestions from Suno AI. The music is 100% Suno AI. –Sheila Murrey
I’m going to get a lot better about specifying which new music contains ALL MY LYRICS, vs. partial AI lyrics. But know that ALL the music is AI generated. And as I create new videos I will make that distinction clear in case there’s any argument in the future WHEN I hit it BIG! Ha!
This is one of my favorites so far, as I hear it in my head before going to sleep at night and when I wake up each morning. Let me know what you think:
Greater Things. I co-wrote the lyrics with Suno AI. The music is 100% Suno AI. –Sheila Murrey
Greater Things. This is exactly the same song, but different music from Suno AI. Every time you input lyrics (or even a few words to stimulate AI to write full lyrics) for a song, it will give you two different versions and sometimes it’s hard to choose which one I like best, much less which version you’ll like best. –Sheila Murrey
Greater Things – We Will Rise. This is a completely different song than the two preceding ones. It started off with a few of the same words to stimulate AI to write full lyrics, and this way, you can get an idea of how it all works when you let Suno AI do the lyrics. Which version do you like best? –Sheila Murrey
Watch these TWO videos BEFORE you use an AI song generation app
Oh, and I’m continuing to learn about how to make these YouTube videos better. Yes, I have illusions of grandeur and I want to make some money from YouTube… but I need at least 1500 followers on there?!? I have a l-o-o-o-o-n-g way to go to do that! Haha!
But I did add some End Screens today, and I feel VERY accomplished. Also, I updated my little mini logo for my YouTube watermark today… woo-hoo! And yes, I still attended and did chat facilitation on my monthly Dr. Bruce Lipton call–it’s my favorite thing each month! Busy bee today! But still got to eat birthday cupcakes and cookies from the twins’ birthday–sad thing, the girls have both been sick so even though we’re right next door, we had to rely on video my daughter took of them opening their gifts. At least we got those treats though! Ha!
