about

Kristin was born during the Vietnam War, and her early years were a time of great turmoil and transformation in the world. She could feel the pain of the war and the uprising of the youth to find a better way. When she was a young child, only 2 years old, playing out on her swing set, she saw herself as "president of the world," standing before tens of thousands of people,sharing with them the ultimate solution to all the worlds' problems.

The solution she gave was LOVE.

I wrote Blue Sky for Kristin's 40th birthday to inspire and remind her of that vision that no matter how small we feel, we have the ultimate gift of love to offer humanity. Blue Sky is not just Kristin’s story, but the story of the child within us ALL. Peace begins by passionately searching within one’s own heart to find and devote oneself to whatever will unite rather than divide. Let us remember this ONE true childlike nature--that our love is unlimited like the blue sky. May that limitless love inspire us to live our lives to the fullest potential.

Love, Peace, and Harmony,

Randall

lyrics

Blue Sky

"you are like the blue sky vibrating everywhere" (~Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati)

there was a little girl who held for the world a vision no one understood
a place of harmony, peace, and love yeah all the things we see as good
she said her prayers at night and knew one day she just might
realize her dream right here and now
love, peace, and harmony

she grew up in a world where what the eyes could see
didn't match with what she felt inside
under the surface she knew there could be so much more
to a mind and heart that's open wide. she could see
love, peace, and harmony

love wide as the blue sky...

don't ya die with the music still in ya now... because ya know...

there is a child within us all who can hear the call
to love, peace, and harmony no matter how small
be the change you wanna see in your heart you'll find the key
open up the door and see how beautiful we all can be
the human race is here and we are drawing near
to a place where we can live from love and not from fear
in my father's house are many rooms
with christians, hindus, jains, and jews,
muslims, seiks, and all other blooms--
but there's only One behind the costumes!
don't assume the fear role, let the love take control
feed your own as you feed the world's soul and know...
now is where we start, we all have a part,
to look honestly into our own heart
then you will feel the truth, and see the world new
and know that love wide as the blue sky is in you

"the state of blue sky..." (~Shri Brahmananda Sarasvati)

aho (tibetan/native american)

mitakuye oyasin (lakota)

hare kṛṣṇa hare kṛṣṇa kṛṣṇa kṛṣṇa hare hare
hare rāma hare rāma rāma rāma hare hare

salam shalom selah shalom (arabic/hebrew)

amazing grace! how sweet the sound, that saved a soul like me!
i once was lost but now am found, was blind but now i see (~john newton, 1779)

love is our truest form...
peace is what we sing for

love, peace, and harmony

there is a little girl who holds for the world
a vision we're starting to understand
can you see?
love, peace, and harmony
can you hear it?
love, peace, and harmony
if we can feel it
love, peace, and harmony
we can be it! now!
love, peace, and harmony
in our world...in all worlds
love, peace, and harmony

she said her prayers at night
knowing one day she might be free...
i'm free! i'm free! i'm free!
livin' in the blue sky
flying free in the blue sky, blue sky

this is the time and place
feel the grace and embrace
with haste don't waste the gifts we've been given
now we're livin' in the blue sky
flying free in the blue sky, blue sky
beyond political division race and religion
join in the vision now on a mission
of love peace and harmony
cause we're livin' in the blue sky
flying free in the blue sky, blue sky

happy and free...

lokāḥ samastāḥ sukhinō bhavantū
oṁ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ śāntiḥ
śāntiḥ oṁ
