I started the song about youthful days on the Oregon coast, then I soon learned that Guido's wife, Astrid, had a very serious health concern, so I did what I do best - create. I tried to capture the emotions I was feeling as it was personal. Guido has been a huge motivation for my music endeavors, encouraging me when I had little but an old laptop to write music with. His kind words kept me going and gave me hope and I am eternally grateful. But I wanted to give back with hope Astrid would recover. It turns out that she will be fine, and may they live happy ever after.
