Hope this finds you all well and busily scurrying around preparing for the holidays.
It’s been a very fulfilling time for me. Amidst the chaos on the planet I have managed to find a greater peace. This year, my mother died leaving her legacy for me to march on. At the same time my grandson was born. Now all my children are married and what more can make a mother proud and peaceful.
I’ve been writing my autobiography focusing on my early career and now, Hal, my associate is transcribing what I’ve written so far. 2010 will be a year of music and writing. Soon I will be releasing a new CD called “Love it Away”, the title song of the album, and before years end a very danceable version of “Love it Away” will be released as a single.
A new practice in my life has manifested emanating from Chennai, India. I feel we are all celestial beings and so I pray and say a mantra everyday to the universe of planets and entities that I call Creator. I find that connecting with the Infinite is very grounding for me. And so, I wish you inner peace and happiness.
Be your own creator.
With love,
DL

Hello Donna, Wow Oh Wow !!!
Your New CD is the coolest and the grooviest that I have ever heard.
“Last Night I Had A Dream” and you got me “Shakin’ All Over” is it “OK” to “Be Your Best Friend” or should I just “Love It Away” after all it’s “Only Love” so “Let’s Pretend” ?

Donna, congradulations on your new CD and becoming a grandmother. I’m sorry to hear about your mother passing away. There is a snapshot of the two of you posted on the website below. It was taken at the San Francisco Cow Palace in 1962. Enjoy life, and keep up the good work. The best to you and yours,
Jim Satcher
