Bio
.......... .. .......... .. ....Follow me on Twitter...... .. ....Connect with me on Facebook...... .. ...."Exudes the brave, naked honesty of Daniel Johnston with a delivery somewhere between Neil Young and Dean Wareham." - Platitude Reviews.. .. .."From the hypnotic and soulful 'Blue Van' to the pensive, close-to-the-bone 'Peel Away', Haydon does offer up a little slab of his soul with each song." - Provincetown Banner.. .. .."Impressive and soulful, it immediately catches attention and sets out its stall as redemptive music." - Three Monkeys eZine.. .. .."...more than a collection of raw and honest songs about lost love and navigating life. It’s also proof that music has the power to pull someone out of the depths of depression and pain." - Brookline TAB.... .. .. .. ............................ -

TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT LIFE ...
"The BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE is the one on which you decide YOUR LIFE is your own. No APOLOGIES or EXCUSES. No one to LEAN ON, RELY ON, or BLAME.
The GIFT OF LIFE is YOURS; it is an AMAZING JOURNEY; and YOU ALONE are responsible for the quality of it. ”
~ Dan Zadra
IF YOU DON'T LIKE BEING A DOORMAT ~ THEN

STRONGER THAN YOU THINK!

TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE OLYMPIC GAMES ...
“Never underestimate the POWER OF DREAMS and the influence of the HUMAN SPIRIT. We are all the same in this notion: The POTENTIAL FOR GREATNESS lives within each of us.”
~ Wilma Rudolph - Olympic Champion
Wilma Rudolph was born prematurely at 4.5 lbs., the 20th of 22 siblings; Rudolph contracted infantile paralysis (caused by the polio virus) at age 4. She recovered, but wore a brace on her left leg and foot (which had become twisted as a result) until she was 9.
Wilma Rudolph was considered the FASTEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD in the 1960s and competed in two Olympic Games, in 1956 and in 1960.
In the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome Rudolph became the first American woman to win 3 GOLD MEDALS in track and field during a single Olympic Games.

TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT POSSIBILITIES ...
Dear Friend,
“LIMITATIONS live only IN OUR MINDS.
But if we use our IMAGINATIONS,
our POSSIBILITIES become LIMITLESS.”
~ Jamie Paolinetti
WE ALL HAVE POSSIBILITIES WE DON'T KNOW ABOUT,
WE CAN DO THINGS WE DON'T EVEN DREAM
WE CAN DO! IMAGINE THE POSSIBILITIES!

Always use COMMON SENSE !
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT COMMON SENSE ...
"STUPID is FOREVER,
IGNORANCE can be FIXED."
~ Don Wood
IT IS A THOUSAND TIMES BETTER TO HAVE COMMON
SENSE WITHOUT EDUCATION THAN TO HAVE
EDUCATION WITHOUT COMMON SENSE!

Make GOOD THINGS HAPPEN today !
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT PEACE OF MIND ...
"SUCCESS, HAPPINESS, PEACE OF MIND and
FULFILLMENT – the MOST PRICELESS of human
treasures – are available to all among us, without
exception, who MAKE THINGS HAPPEN – who
make ‘GOOD’ things happen – in the world around them."
~ Joe Klock
THERE IS NO GREATER JOY NOR GREATER REWARD

Sending LOTS OF LOVE your way !
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT THE MOTOWN SOUND ...
In 1959, Berry Gordy gathered the best musicians from Detroit's thriving jazz and blues scene to begin cutting songs for his new record company. Starting with an $800 loan, Gordy turned MOTOWN RECORDS and Detroit, Michigan into "HITSVILLE U.S.A."
Between 1959 and 1972, this unheralded group of musicians had played on MORE # 1 HITS than the
BEACH BOYS,
the ROLLING STONES,
ELVIS
and the BEATLES ... COMBINED ~
which makes them the GREATEST HIT MACHINE in the history of popular music.
These great musicians called themselves simply
the FUNK BROTHERS.
I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN THE SHADOWS OF MOTOWN
AND OWE MUCH TO THEIR RICH MUSICAL LEGACY.

May you have LOVE in your heart this Christmas !
TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT LOVE AND CHRISTMAS ...
"My idea of CHRISTMAS, whether old-fashioned or modern, is very simple: LOVING OTHERS.
Come to think of it, WHY DO WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR CHRISTMAS TO DO THAT?"
~ Bob Hope
BLESSED IS THE SEASON WHICH ENGAGES THE WHOLE WORLD IN A CONSPIRACY OF LOVE!
