bmindful - the positive affirmation community
db...'s Profile
Hello everyone ,
I am single, mature man , living in Ontario, Canada. I am enjoying the view on the spiritual path with all its many twists and turns. I enjoy learning about the mind and spirit, and how they function in the fascinating, endless nature of reality and wonder of the universe
I love music. I enjoy living a healthy lifestyle , I enjoy meeting new people. I am someone who appreciates and values honesty, integrity, intelligence , awakenened spirituality , beauty, self discipline, and those with healthy self esteem.
I appreciate the arts . I have many interests, and I love to be around positive, like minded, optimistic people who have a great sense of humour. I am a creative artist. I am a pianist, a composer, a keyboardist, a singer and a songwriter.
My focus is now on creating the kind of lifestyle that I truly want to live . This includes being the kind of person I choose to be and having the people I want in my life and the level of artistry that I aspire to.
Playing the piano and composing music are two of my most intense passions in life. This is a labor of love for me. Music is my life. I am primarily self taught, but I also have a university degree in classical music which I took as a mature student after performing in different kinds rock and pop bands for many years.
Studying classical music at university, was a life changing experience for me , it has benefited me in so many ways , I never could have imagined at the time.
I took time out from performing, and a life of travelling, to just live and to study music composition on my own, and to work on personal transformation, and my own artistic development. It was also a time for me to study the spiritual traditions and to research and learn about metaphysical subjects and to experience a spiritual awakening . This was absolutely one of the best decisions of my life. I believe in trusting my intuition and living by the wisdom and truth of inner guidance.
It all has been a very rewarding and fruitful experience . I am now different kind of artist ,expressing my self in new, more challenging and fulfilling ways, in a different context.
I enjoy many different kinds of music. Film music, Jazz, world, electronic funk and r’n’b, New Age and Classial . I enjoy it all . Everything really. I especially appreciate good songwriting. I am always reaching higher and higher, learning and growing as a pianist, a composer, a creative artist and as a human being.
I am big reader, and I am happy and grateful to be constantly working on personal growth.
It’s a pleasure and an honor to be a part of bmindful.
all the best,
db…
Namaste ~

Hey db…
Thanks for the comments on my profile!
I notice you’re a Canadian, I was just talking about Canada today as a place I would definitely like to spend some time once I’m done with my studies. The cool climate, and seemingly progressive and accepting people makes it incredibly appealing. I’ve had a couple of friends visit too, they’ve all come back confirming my thoughts!
Anyway, just thought I’d share. Thanks for being a part of bmindful!
Hi db…, have you got a link for us to sample hear your songs? I am very curious to hear your music. Always enjoy your threads. Thanks. Wish you all the success you wish for yourself, Afi

Thank you for adding me as your friend db you add so much life to this website. Blessings always.
What kind of smoth jazz do you like? Me….I perfer saxaphone, keyboards or gutiar.
Hey Lady_D,
Depends on the track , and the song itself . One smooth jazz group I enjoy is the Rippingtons, led by the guitarist Russ Freeman , who is an excellent composer, who really knows his craft, and is a great producer .
His sax player, Eric Marienthal is great solo artist, who also performs with many people like Chick Corea. I also like group a called , The Yellow Jackets, the keyboardist is Russel Ferrante .
They are a little more funky/fusion type jazz but all really great players and composers. I have some of the music scores to both these groups .The pianist Keith Jarrett I love. He is in a class of his own. I particlarily enjoy his solo piano concerts,He is out side of the smooth jazz category though.
I like many sax players, Dave Sandborn, Bob Mintzer, Wayne Shorter , Dave Koz, I listened to for a while, and Micheal Brecker who I met one time .
What about you , who do you listen to ?
Hey! I like the Rippingtons too! Along with Dave Koz, Huge Groove, Dave Sandborn, Gregg Karukas, Kirk Whalum, Mindi Abair, Shahin & Sepehr, Paul Taylor, Candy Dulfer, Bona Fide, and a few others. :-)
Been listening to Susan Boyle lately. Some of her songs remind me of Barry Manalio (Yea, I know. I’m spelling it wrong). I feel like she relates to the song she’s singing….as if she’s gone thru it herself. Like Barry. She puts her heart and soul into the song.
I really don’t pay that much attention to the artists anymore, only if I like the song. Used to listen to KHJZ-smooth jazz until they went HD and I couldn’t get the station anymore. Then my car radio died when Hurricane Ike blew thru. Someone broke a window and rain got in….radio hasn’t played since.
So. I just enjoy what music I do have. Need some new tunes though. :-) Been a while (a long while) since I bought anything new. And I don’t know how to download stuff.
Hi db! I just read your response to dinkledorfer’s dilemma and I found some advice that is useful and helpful to me. I, too, feel somewhat “stuck”, because in spite of doing affirmations every day, there still is a lingering worry about finances. Also, I want to change careers eventually, but am searching for the right combination of things that make me very happy. Thanks for your inspiring messages! AnnieB
You are very welcome , How is Toronto these days. It’s where I usually live but I’ve been taking a break from it and regrouping elsewhere for a while as I learn some music repetoire.
Hi! Have a great weekend! : )
DB, I can’t believe I’ve never read your profile, my man! You and I are twin brothers of different mothers! Which one of us is Dan and which one is Tim?
