K's Story

Life I left the east coast in 1976 and settled in Phoenix for 18 years.Surrounded by great companions, and lots of love, I began writing songs about those I met, and about the lessons I was learning along the way up my road of life. For 4 years in the late 80's, I became an emotional support volunteer for people living with AIDS. On a hot 122 degree day, I relocated to the Boulder, Colorado area in 1994 where I lived for almost 14 years. It was during the year of my move to Colorado that I located a dear friend from high school just months before she lost her battle with cancer.I am forever grateful we were given the chance to visit on the phone one last time, and that I followed that inner still voice urging me to find her.Mary Joan Jackson Rhoades will always be an angel on my shoulder who I will NEVER forget. It took 20 years after leaving the east before I returned to attend a mini reunion with some former classmates. In that same year, I reunited with my son, who I hadn't seen in that amount of time. I also had the chance to meet & spend time with Mary Jackson's daughter on my way home. I was faced with my own mortality when my liver gave out in 1999, but with the help of modern medicine, lots of prayers, spiritual healing, and unconditional love, I'm back in the flow of life. Learning of spiritual medium John of God who was the subject of the book "Miracle Man" and profiled on "Primetime Live", I took a life altering journey to Brazil in the autumn of 2005, (springtime in Brazil). Since that journey, life has been the sweetest it's ever been! It was the beginning of my music going out to a global audience. More importantly, I found the love of my life there! It took us meeting in Brazil for me to find this wonderful, compassionate, beautiful, soulful woman who loves me for me. I swore I'd never live back east again, but now this is where I find myself! (What we won't do for love!) In April, 2006, I had the opportunity to sing to an audience of a 1,000 or so people at a spiritual event in Atlanta. What a trip it was was having people approaching me to sign my cd for them, or stopping me along the way asking, "Aren't you the guy on the cover of the cd in the gift shop?" But as we all know, fame is fleeting, so though it was fun to enjoy my 15 minutes of it while it lasted, it was far better to know that after all the hubbub was over, and the crowds thinned out, I still had one woman waiting for me who was my biggest fan of all ~ Not because I could rhyme words and set them to music (although she does love it when I sing to her!) but because we share much of the same vision for life, and what it really means to love another soul. We're both interested in alternative healing mod...Expand for more
alities and we're learning and doing what we can to help usher in the changes for the new earth to come to fruition. Finally, those who knew me, knew I had a turbulent childhood, but I'm happy to say my Mom and I have become good friends over the years, and age does have its advantages ~ small things don't stay under the skin as long! So life is good in my 50th decade, and I wish all my classmates the same! ~ Namaste ~ ~Kim "...here we stand in the eyes of god reaching out, reaching out for connection." ~Miten and Deva Premal "Songs for the Inner Lover" cd School In 2003, I attended the 30th year class reunion and though it went well, I have to say it was my first, as well as my last. All of us had definitely grown older! The majority seemed to have grown more open and wiser, which was a hopeful sign! Various awards were given out and I was given "The Most Changed" award! It was a no brainer on THAT call! Below is a song that I performed at our class' 30th reunion in 2003 that I had written for a teacher who taught me a very valuable lesson. Thanks for the inspiration, Ms. Supchak!: -------- She was one of the prettiest teachers I'd seen, but she had one eye that looked at him, and one eye that looked at me. And we'd both pretend we didn't know which one that she was trying to see. Oh yeah, kids can be cruel ~ and I was no exception. I made fun of that teacher and spent time in detention. And it finally got so bad, that she didn't want me in her class anymore ~ She even moved my desk ~ outside the door. She was a teacher who loved her work 'til I came along, for I made her feel just like she didn't belong. And it was only because her eyes were different from ours ~ spread apart from the time she was born. But she had such a caring heart that was gentle and warm. One day news came around ~ that teacher finally had left. And the days passed without her ~ Still no sign of her yet. And I felt really bad that maybe I'd made her quit, for I knew that I'd hurt that teacher. . . quite a bit. Well, the new year of school began ~ and who did I see? It was that same pretty teacher ~ and she looked straight at me! Her eyes were no longer spread apart like before. And she was looking quite happy, and feeling quite self-assured! And I hope she still teaches, for she sure did teach me about getting past obstacles to be who you want to be. And though I never told her, well, just between you and me, she was one of the prettiest teachers that I'd ever seen! And how I wish that I had never been that mean. Oh no, I wish that I had NEVER ~ been that mean! (Written for Ms. Andrea Supchak, "Been That Mean" from my cd "Unconditional Love" (c) 2006 by Kim Lee. Available at CD Baby online)
