Waving Hi with a Full Heart — What Can We Give?

My heart was feeling HUGE this week with all the Facebook Lives.

Musicians, writers, teachers.

So many people I have followed for years and respect.

One-off videos like singer Andrea Bocelli and daughter Virginia. (Click the underlined link. The FB link can’t be embedded.)

This past week, we’ve seen videos of musicians playing from their balconies to their neighbors in Italy.

We’ve seen a man holding fitness classes from a rooftop.

I don’t know when it started

Suddenly all kinds of musicians I follow started doing short little sets on Facebook Live.

Everybody from Michael Franti to Indigo Girls and Mary Chapin Carpenter and so many others.

I was reading about curated events, almost like a FB Live Woodstock enough artists’ sets to complete an entire weekend. And that was just one bunch.
