Jonathan and Robin,
I just wanted to let you know how wonderful the “If You’re on the Same Level” Premier Party was. Driving on that dark dreary night into the recesses of a country road, we started to wonder if we were lost. Then through the haze of the mist, we saw it…the searchlight reaching up into the sky. We smiled at each other because we knew that we had arrived.
The location was exquisite. The historic schoolhouse filled with beautiful art and even more beautiful people could not have provided a better backdrop for this very special event. I must admit the opportunity to reconnect with old friends and discover incredibly interesting new friends was so overwhelming that I temporarily forgot why we were there.
Then as we all gathered to listen to you share your moment with us – I found myself looking around the room. There I saw people of all ages and all backgrounds, sitting together, laughing in harmony at the jokes and feeling the love as you thanked everyone with words that rang true. As you built to the moment for the video debut it was clear that you had captured the room. The video was great and a joy to watch. But perhaps my favorite part of the evening is when Jonathan sang some of his other songs. Standing there unsupported by instruments or choreography, your words and feeling were softly powerful – and the room went silent. It was at that moment, it was clear we were in the presence of a talent that shined much brighter than the searchlight that guided us to this one location on this dark and rainy evening. It was there that we clearly knew… despite our diverse backgrounds and the different roads we had all traveled to arrive there on that evening. We, indeed were all on the same level. Thank you for your hospitality and the sharing of your talent and passion. Continue to live your dream and we will continue to enjoy the reflection of our art.
