The Beauty of Truth.
I wrote this for a wandering musical soul whose story I heard and therefore I wrote something special for her. It had to do with a religious sect who has pursuaded her to halt her music career labeling her artistic efforts sinful. Now, I have stripped my letter to her of the personal subjects that related specifically to her situation and I share it with you here. I share it with you because I feel motivated to inspire folks that need to nurture their God given gifts and protect their individual and personal relationship with the Lord. I've also expanded upon the letter so that it applies to many.
The beauty of truth.
Every one is born with special talents. When you discover your purpose through those special talents, you have engaged yourself with the will of God. The task now is activity and renewal.
To ignore one's purpose, well, that is a sin.
Jesus Christ came to preach a mystical method of worship. Not a method based upon religiousity that robs the precious individual soul of their God-given talents because a collective mind, an established religion, tells an individual how they ought to live. In other words, washes their brain with man-made regulations in order to control a collective.
God gave us FREE WILL. Our will. To have a personal relationship with HIM. Yes, prayer in community is amazing, beautiful, and very powerful. But the power is in each individual's personal relationship with the Father, through the example of Jesus Christ, coming together as a holy collective to CELEBRATE LOVE in worship.
The mystical method, was far beyond what man could corral with mere words. To corral with words, means to control. The Father is in Control, through the power of divine love. To love is to nurture, to water, to feed, to give and to receive. Jesus gave example of this. Because the heart and the soul speak in a mystical language so deep and profound, the only way to understand is through LOVE. Only love....positive, loving, encouraging, evolutionary LOVE.
Lean not on man's wisdom, but on the wisdom of the Lord, which is truth. Religion is not church. Religion is a mind set. Jesus Christ taught that LOVE is all there is. To love and respect and seek wisdom in all things. To rely on divine intelligence. A church is a gathering of like-hearted folks who love and worship the Father, and celebrate one another's gifts. Who seek to deepen their knowledge of LOVE. Jesus is gentle. He is love. He does not scold. He does not abuse the soul and talent of the Father's precious children. He doesn't condemn. He doesn't shame his sheep into thinking, yes thinking a certain way. He doesn't punish. Man's ego does all that.
During His earthly works, Jesus Christ entered into the den of thieves, into the chamber of the forsaken, and ate with the castaways. He dwelled with sinners and spoke with them about the Good word. Love. A sinner is one separated from their purpose, and thus separated from LOVE. Separated from the activity of their purpose.
Jesus entered into places where God could send His only Son. Because He knew the language of LOVE. That is the way that the Father works. He relies on His children to be His instrument of peace. (Remember that Jesus was condemned by MAN for His unique way of worship and divine instruction. For His walk with the outcasts and those precious souls in need of healing that the Pharisees would kick aside to enter their temple of worship. Jesus became the most exaulted example of the destruction that man's ego and collective opinion and religious rules causes!)
And to be an instrument is to be available to His calling, no matter where it may take you. And He calls you through your God given talents. You're ability to be active in LOVE. Many of God's children, even those not yet awaken to the Word, often times can only be divinely aroused through seemingly random events that simply, ever so simply, touch their souls -- like music.
God wants to Communicate to His children, through you. He arranges your life and draws you to people who believe in your talent and thus foster and open doors, so that HE can complete His WORKS through you. How the heavens rejoice when a soul is saved. Saved from the harsh life of living without fulfillment by virtue of an individual's gifts engaged and fully utlized for goodness.
The army of an individual who has a personal relationship with the Lord and thus uses their God given purposeful talents for His will whether in the den of theives, to the broken spirited, to those who are spiritual, and to those who are lost, no matter where they are....oh, my goodness...that is salvation.
Listen to the Father. Go to your heart where the answers are beating in rhythm for YOU to understand.
Jesus is calling you to LISTEN to YOUR heart. Leave your anxious mind where man made ruin occurs. Pray for TRUTH. Be active in your God given talents which are a gift to the world. Allow the Father to work through you so that you can lead others home to their heart, too, through your precious talents.
Now is the time to fully be present to the Father's calling. This world is in dire need of love and renewal. Just when the Father is working at a a child's (meaning you) highest calling, the wolf lay to devour that soul, and many times, through the method of USING the Father's words and twisting them into chaos, thus twisting a child's mind to turn away from the heavenly Father's WILL.
You may wish to read Eckart Tolle's A New Earth, which is great at explaining things of the ego in religion.
Peace and love and may the light of understanding expand into your body, mind and soul, so that the seed of your truth will fully blossom into song. Pray for Holy truth to be revealed unto you. God bless you. May the beauty of Holy Truth be revealed to you, child, by the power of the Holy Spirit, in the name of Jesus Christ.

Hot MIXX --
Who Said A City Girl Can't Be Country? --- There's a hot little ruff mix posted at www.myspace.com/motoroadeo --- It's delicious. It rocks. U can dance 2 it. It needs work, still, but it's just so much fun I decided to engage you in the process of getting it to where it needs to be... This is a tough song to mix, to create, because I want it to be the perfect blend of country meets city. Whew! Oh, to answer a frequently asked question, I record most everything in my home on a Protools LE rig off a Toshiba laptop. Yep. Those are live instruments you hear and some scratch loops and drops on the City Girl track.
Patrick and I record our projects because we don't wait around for someone else to do it for us...we're on a learning curve, sure!
With operating ALL this software to record...there's alot to learn...so much to learn in the art of making music and recording it, writing it.... But, the great thing is YOU can do that...you don't have to wait around for a record deal, for some big producer to work magic. Sure, I'd love to work with, oh, Linda Perry! my favorite chick producer, or Jack White! Or, by golly, Tony Brown! Though for now, this is A Sashalicious production with all the learning curves included...it's all in the curves anyway....vavavavroom! Maybe that's my sound....
lean, roll on the throttle, scrape the pipes a bit....you get the idea. xo

Who Said A City Girl Can't Be Country?
I'm in the thick of mixing this song. Holy cow. What a challenge. I have alot going on in the song admittedly. It's like I have a blank canvas and now I have to choose from a hundred colors to paint the picture, but not muddy it all up. And then what is the consistent color that is the foundation for it all.
I have all the tracks I want and now it's a matter of painting the picture. I have white out the canvas on this song so many times, for all kinds of reasons ranging from my learning curve producing my own music, to what the song musically represents, to achieving that perfect blend of Nashville meets NYC.
Blending, mixing, carving, crafting. Today, I'm closer than ever with this song. My energies are going to crafting this song today. Blending and sculpting it. It's an artsty redneck symphony which is complicated.
I don't want to muddy it up. It needs to be a masterpiece. Later on I'll post a mix. Tell me what you think.

It's all about hottie...without a Harley.
My dears:
I did not make it into the first round of Miss Sturgis. It's all about the hottie. So, I thought, should I have submitted those crazy fun bikini photos, the fun burlesque images -- oh, well. HONESTLY, I could not and I don't have any of those images readily available.
I did submit one lovely bartending photo in my chrome leathers -- the bar of course The Broken Spoke Saloon, to which, I may add, I rode the entire way from Nashville to Daytona to go to work -- on my hot little Harley.
Nonetheless, I thought the idea of the contest was fun especially because of my mission to change what the contest should be about: celebrating the essence of the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and Races, remembering Pearl and J. Clarence "Pappy" Hoel and spotlighting the Jack Pine Gypsies Motorcycle Club, and surely give noteriety to the female chrome cowgirl who saddles up on her own ride and heads to the Black Hills.
I appreciate all of you wonderful friends and family who voted for me. Indeed, you are precious and so very thoughtful.
For now I'll continue to be a hottie on my own Harley....say, Greg, let's finish that song, by the way.
Love and kisses to all!
Sasha

A Day to Love.
Happy Valentine's! Day
Today, reflect upon the word love and what it means to YOU. To me, it means to connect and heal. To be compassionate and honest. To protect and to give. To receive and to be thankful. To encourage and to be innocent.
This means to take care of our Earth. To tenderly care for her as a precious child, to revere her as a guardian of our lives. All respect all her inhabitants, all of nature, all the creatures, the bugs, the birds, the humans. To be equal...in that equality to honor the soul of another, the soul of this precious universe in which we occupy breath and space.
Love is to be aware. To be aware that we are spirits from an entirely highly intelligent dimension. That are minds are merely tools to interact our bodies with the earth experience and that our minds must completely be fed positive, encouraging messages. That are bodies operate on the strength and power of all things good entering into it from healthy food and drink, to the messages we receive, the people with whom we associate, etc. Love is to be strong in our weaknesses. To be very gentle in our power.
Love is to gaze upon another and see past the pain and ego, reaching deeper to know their soul and communicating with the soul of another...the highest intellect because then everything else pulls higher and uplifts the entire Earth energy. Love is to gaze upon nature and see it vibrant with energy, pulsing with intellect. Thus the higher intellect which is love, that operates our very existence.
Be not passive with Love. Love is the life force deep. Be active in Love towards all things, all people, and to Mother Earth. Thankful to GOD, in the name of Jesus, or whomever your spiritual inspiration may be.

I've Got The Music In Me.
Bound and determined. Is that what it takes? I've got an itch I need to scratch. It's musical. It's a need to get my songs and motoroadeoMC magic out to the world. I'm on a mission. It feels really good. I'm filled with inspiration. Filled with this vision. I've got the music in me...There is power in faith. I'm faithfilled. Just doing and enjoying each moment of doing...of the process. I used to get frustrated and sometimes cry about my dreams seeming so difficult to achieve. But not any more. Because I enjoy the process, now. The art of doing. The art of being fully in the moment and engaging myself in the activity of now. Right now.
Right now, I'm communicating to the world. What motorvates me to do this? Because I just love so much that I want to share my existence. I want to know about your existence. You inspire me to create. I inspire myself to create. The act of living is inspirational. I like to share things I learn and I like to learn. I can only do that by making myself known to you. And likewise, you known to me.
I've got the music in me. Some interesting rhythm, I'll tell you. I do hear a song in everybody. It's been said that every person is a storybook. I say every person is a song, many songs, many melodies.
I want to share my songs with you. My melodies. Tonight I'm mixing...rough mixes. Preparing and grooming my music to be sent to a professional mix engineer, who is the finest mixer in the world out of NYC. He rides motorcycles, too.
Ziggy, my new guitar, and I are totally into one another. I've composed something with Patrick that is just so pretty, very Beatles sounding meets, me. I don't know what it will be yet. I love the chord changes. I've been studying the Eagles' music. There some dang gorgeous chord changes. I've realized that music which is truly pouring forth from the soul in its purest and truthful form will move other souls. It reaches the core in its truth. The type of melodies that the Eagles write, is like choregraphed physical movement, though it makes your spirit dance and moves you on a journey...that's where your mind is able to connect, because first your soul is swept away by the music, then your mind is able to fall into a place of awareness. Embracing and engaging your whole being with the sound that becomes a taste that becomes a scent that becomes something you sware you can touch -- while your mind paints pictures to see.
I've got the music in me. Like you do, too. The key right now is getting the music completed and into the world for all to enjoy and feel inspired.
I encourage you all to pursue your deep dreams that are in you, yearning to come forth.
With love and artistic passion,
your friend,
Sasha

I honor the legacy of the motorcycle rally and races and its co-founders Pearl and J. Clarence "Pappy" Hoel, (Mr. Hoel also founded the Jackpine Gypsies Motorcycle Club). Pearl will forever be known to me as "The Pearl of the Rally." I'm also all about supporting girls who ride motorcycles and seeing more female energy thundering across the country wearing big s'miles.
