"We Are Family" A Musical Message for All

I'm busier than usual because I'm directly involved with a number of charitable commitments as well as my normal job. I started this blog because there are many people who, like myself, are struggling with cancer problems specifically, but hardships in general. Life is mainly hardship with moments of happiness.

I try and find good in the most difficult times so I can experience as much happiness as I can control. I try and think of working and giving as fun and rewarding.

I've traveled all around this world since I was a child and I've seen acts of kindness where you'd least expect to find them. People have a great ability to be kind. Regardless of whatever health issues I'm dealing with, my life is fun and rewarding. I've created many songs that have changed my life. "We Are Family" is even the inspiration for my own charitable foundation - and like the song, our programs have reached millions and what we've accomplished in the first eleven years humbles me.

The whole We Are Family Foundation team is working overtime on our upcoming gala. It will take place on Monday, October 29, 2012 at Manhattan Center's Hammerstein Ballroom. We're honoring a few visionary humanitarians: Sting and Trudie Styler, Jeni Stepanek, Ph. D., and Daniel Stern of Reservoir Capitol. Many of my friends will be performing. If the past can forecast the future, it will be A Night to Remember ».
