Hive Open Mic ( #openmic ) is a global community celebrating live music on Hive. Each week is a new event, encouraging musicians to share songs with an international audience.
This week our Hive Open Mic theme is: "Woman Life Freedom." To me this is a well-timed and meaningful focal point, drawing attention to some really big cultural shifts happening around the world right now. I’ve witnessed a shift in my own social circles as women are forming sisterhood circles and holding space to grow, flourish, and value the worth they see in themselves and each other. We are all worthy of unconditional love and respect.
In my understanding, self-worth is something that has been largely lost among women through hundreds of years of male-dominated workplaces and worldly ways. I am reminded of a time 100 years ago when women didn't even have the right to vote in this nation. I think it is massively rewarding for all of us when a woman knows her worth. I believe when we all stand in our strengths the world is a better place.
The song I’m sharing here originated a week or so ago. It is inspired by a sister-friend who I’ve known for a long time. Her name is Heather. I recently learned some of her life story and the challenges she’s faced, and the path of forgiveness, and the way she is now finding Grace. She is a sparkly person surely originating from a star nation, I imagine. This song is for her, first. And in the bigger picture, it is for all women, men, and children.
Sparkles
Serve as a reminder you are a golden child
Showing the divine inner fire
Through your smile
Serve as a reminder you are as firm as granite
Moving mountains across the planet
Through your hands
Serve as a reminder you are a blessed star
Giving medicine to the world
Being as you are
Walk in beauty with the Almighty with you
Fill your cup with love every day
Drink it up

Greetings from here. I loved your introduction and that song you wrote for your friend Heather, which I can even come to feel as my own. It is right and necessary that changes happen and as you describe, they are happening and that is to be applauded. I send you a big hug, this song is touching and motivating.
Ah, feeling your hug, and hugging you back. Thank you. I'm with you in celebrating the changes happening in the world. Ready to listen to the women speak and sing!
Muy buen ritmo te deseo muy buena suerte 🤞 😊😇☺️😁💗❤️🔥💫🙏🙏🙏🕊🕊
Gracias por enviar sus buenos deseos. Espero que tengas un día maravilloso.
The tunes of the guitar itself sparks my inner man in a very beautiful way. I hope Heather listens to this piece. It has a way of revamping her courage, making her stay strong despite all odds
Thanks for connecting through the tunes, my friend. Yes, the person who inspired this song is a courageous soul, and I'm so proud of her for being brave, facing fears, bringing her bold steps and walking in beauty today. Heather is an inspiration. This song brings me courage too.
Dear big brother @cabelindsay
Its always a great privilege to listen to you play and sing those charming and creative songs you write...
I also believe that women are great potentials and the strength of their ability will make a positive contribution in the quest for solutions to some problems if only these potentials are nutured and brought to light..
I followed closely the meaningful lyrics of your song. Apart from feeling your vibes, I got the clear message you're passing accros with your magical guitar sound I will say that women are gift from God to man that's why He (God) called them our helper (women)...
Thank you big brother and I pray for blessings...
Keep Rocking 🎶🥰💜🎵🎶😀🎸🎺🎺🎺🎸🎵💯♥️🙌🎯
Wonderful insight you bring here, thank you for sharing your interpretation. Definitely with you in the belief that women are a gift from God! And thanks for your supportive words—I treasure our friendship and brotherhood connection.
The lyrics of this song are pure poetry, you can tell that the inspiration that your friend gave you with her testimony went beyond and made you create this beautiful song, the chords and arpeggios seem simple but in reality they are perfect and are linked to the lyrics with an unbreakable thread, we loved it.
It was beautiful to see and hear you dear brother, you are light for this world that cries out for equality in all possible human aspects, let's keep fighting for that. A hug!
With you in the freedom fighting, my friends. Thank you for finding the poetry and beauty in this music. Sending you two hugs!!
Excelente interpretación bro, felicidades
Hermosa canción, pudimos disfrutarla mucho, exelente trabajo querido amigo 🥰, Dios le siga bendiciendo 💕
I was watching your cover with my 4-year-old son. The first thing he saw when I opened this post was the photo of you. Then he asked me, "mommy is this God"?
I said no, it's somebody. Then he said " His face looks like God" as in Jesus. I just couldn't stop laughing.
Come to think of it though, your voice sounds so cool, pleasant, and heavenly. The way you hummed, you just made the love the song"Sparkles". I love it.
Again, you have a very lovely vocal. I simply love everything.
Thank you for sharing this.
That is so funny! Yes, some of my friends tell me the same thing. This look is really the most natural one I know - basically just "let it grow." :) Still, I'm so happy people see Jesus' resemblance in me. In fact, my personal belief is that "the second coming of Christ" may be a Christ consciousness that exists in every single one of us, including your son, and you. We all have our roles to play in the ascension process, I feel. And music is one of the greatest ways I know to rise up and harmonize. Sending you a hug.
Really! My son was right after all hehe😄
Yeah, I think I agree with you.
Well, you might be right with all that you've said.
Yeah, I also agree with this. Thanks for the hug 🤗
What a beautiful song Cabe, you sang so amazing and the melody is so beautiful, it rocked me back and forth like a lullaby song, I simply loved it and what a beautiful energy in it, it is light for any life that is in the shadows 💖!!!!!
I send you a big hug brother, your music is medicine and cures any ailment, you have a gift, where God himself must have sung it to you before your arrival to the world, you are a shining star 🌟..... You Rockkk!!!! 🙌😀💛🔥🎙️🎸🎶❤️🌟🍻💥💫💯
Aw, you're the best, man. Dear sweet friend. I love you, brother. Thank you for your encouragement, and for sending your hugs. I am so blessed to know you.
It has also been a blessing to know you Brother 🙏💖 you have my love and respect, thanks for everything Cabe 🤝.... You Rockkkkk!!! 🙌😀💛

Cool, yes, you have my vote. Yes, I really feel the floodgates will open here on Hive when we have an easier entrance point. I think the URL gets confusing to newcomers, and we might just need a more straightforward portal. I don't know of the solution, but I'm keeping this on my radar. Thanks for your contributions to simplify the login process and keep our accounts secure.
Thank you for your support @cabelindsay, really appreciate it! 👍
