NOTE: the original audio with this vid of me singing the Gary Wright song "Dreamweaver" was deleted by Youtube because of copyright questions. So, enjoy some Handel: Concerto For Organ & Orchestra No. 4; Allegro! P.S. After Youtube deleted the audio, I got this message (now days ago) from Youtube: 'The claim from your video Moving has been removed by WMG. Your video has been restored to its original state'....mmm, not yet, it hasn't...I'm still waiting.
You might like to check out an article in the Huffington Post by Howie Klein. He interviewed Gary Wright about the song Dream Weaver being used as a kind of theme when Joe Biden's son was introduced at the Democratic Convention in Denver.
Addendum: Originally posted after my 'break' from Youtube last year, now a Video Response to GreatGig1's "War on War" video competition entry to express my personal truth that to change our thinking can lead to global peace. The song: "Dreamweaver" written by Gary Wright after his friend and Beatle George Harrison gave him a copy of "Autobiography of a Yogi". Years later while reading more of the writings of Paramahansa Yogananda, he came across a poem called "God! God! God!" where one of the lines referred to the idea of the mind weaving dreams.... I'm singing it here.
Celebrate life's diversity ...above all, recognize our unity: I believe that when this happens we will know peace.
(See notes below. I do not belong to nor is it my intention to promote any one religion or God here. This is but one part of my many expressions, and the Hicks' quote and reference material is purely offered as food for thought for whomever cares to inquire on it. I doubt anyone could deny that our minds are weavers of dreams).

This is representative of what I was up to during my short break from Youtubing. The making of this video itself was quite a little cosmic trip in itself. I hope you can allow my 64 year-old warbling voice; I felt I had to sing it myself as part of the cosmic trip package LOL...
The quote at the end is from the works of Esther and Jerry Hicks. No, I'm not 'preaching' to anyone (good line, Liz; its a church); this vid represents a personal 'story' of mine. If you like, you'll find some videos in my channel's vlog as an introduction to the work of the Hicks.
I kept asking myself why I was titling this video 'Moving' (other than the fact the owner was moving out the day of taping), and kept thinking of different titles for it. Then, during the time of editing, I was introduced to the Hicks' different meaning of the word 'moving' ...as you'll see, in describing my break from Youtube and what I was doing, its perfect!
Its good to be back.
Enjoy!
That was beautiful, Liz! Watched twice.
