While a piece of work may not embody a life’s work, it is part of a whole contribution to the work that I am a part of -- a work 
in progress.  

I suppose that this piece of work started when I was born to this life.  I see life as a cyclical process, and the blessings or sacrifices--simply part of life’s cycle.  

It is said many different ways in many different cultures: You reap what you sow. You get back what you put into something.  Yin Yang.  

However you may say it -- in whatever fashion you contemplate it or believe it and most of all -- apply it -- "Full Circle" is a gift from me to the world and from the world to me,
as part of life’s cycle.

thank you: music sometimes creates unlikely partnerships as is the case with Mark Woerpel and I.  thanks Mark for your time, patience, talent and guidance, but most of all for your friendship.  special thanks to my wife Tes, thanks for your love and support;  and to my kids, David and Alex, for always being my guys.  my thanks also go out to Eric, Ethan, Theo, Phred, Mike K., Amerrah, Cory ³Zymm², Sean aka ³Skinah², Deone, Tony, Joe and Kevin at Sonic Treat Studio; and to all of my friends whose support is needed and very much appreciated.  thanks to God.
