For the Sender: Love Is (Not a Feeling): summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "For the Sender: Love Is (Not a Feeling)" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Author and singer-songwriter Alex Woodard was in the audience, waiting to be called to the stage to perform at New York Times bestselling author Dr. Wayne Dyers lecture presentation in New York. Dr. Dyers daughter had written him a letter, and Alex had crafted a song about the letter in the spirit of his first Hay House release (For The Sender: Four Letters. Twelve Songs. One Story.). Any moment now, Alex would be asked to play it for the sold-out auditorium.

But first Scarlett Lewis was invited to the stage. Scarletts son was a six-year-old hero who died saving his friends lives in the Newtown, Connecticut, elementary-school massacre, and her words of love rang deep through the packed house as she told her story. Alex noticed that Scarlett described love more as an action and less as a feeling, and made a mental note to speak to her after the presentation. Scarlett would soon send Alex a letterand coupled with the letter from Dr. Dyers daughter, the foundation would be set for Alexs spring 2014 release For The Sender: Love Is (Not A Feeling).

Through those letters (and three other inspiring examples), and songs from platinum-selling artists written about them, Alex weaves his own story of discovery as he sifts through the competing messages we receive daily about the most powerful of human experiences: love. He challenges mainstream media, the self-help establishment, and the reader to re-examine what really matters: what we actually do, for ourselves and each other. The end result is a deeply empowering reading and listening experience that will be featured in Dr. Dyers 2014 PBS special and on stages nationwide this spring.

So whens the next one?

The question came from behind me, where it hung in the air for a moment before trailing off into the emptying theater. I turned to see legendary songwriter Jack Temp-chin standing by himself in the middle of the worn-down wooden stage, looking into the curtains dark, folded corners for an answer. I smiled and went back to watching the last of the crowd trickle out the front doors until Molly Jenson took me by the arm and said she wanted to keep on doing whatever this was.

But what was it?

Wed just performed a concert of songs wed written about four moving, real-life letters Id received over the last couple of years. Most of the audience members were leaving the theater with an album of these songs, enclosed in a small book called For the Sender that Id had printed for the performance. Id woven my own journey through the letters and songs, and as the project slowly came together the result read like a book, sounded like an album, and, after tonights show, felt like a concert.

Up until that night, no one really knew what I was working on, not even the friends who had helped me write the songs. I wasnt sure myself at first, and when people would ask me Id run through the same questions in my mind: Is this a book? An album? A show about a book and album? All of the above?

All I knew was that I felt as if Id been holding this little bird in my hands, a sleeping ball of feather, waiting for the right time to spread her wings out in the world. And in front of two capacity crowds on that cold January night, I closed my eyes, opened my hands, and let her go, hoping she might fly.

She did fly, up through the aisle, out the dilapidated front doors of the theater, and into the clear winter sky, leaving Jack onstage wondering out loud what I was already thinking to myself: Whens the next one?

Our question would soon be answered by a woman whod been in the audience that night. But I didnt know this yet, so I packed up my guitar and left the theater, thinking this was probably the last time Id see that little bird.

The year unfolded with new beginnings, and among other firsts, I got a horse. I thought she was just a simple, quiet trail horse, one of hundreds that change hands every day. Id ridden her a couple of times and she seemed fine, but I didnt know as much as I thought I knew about horses. I found out later that she was the daughter of a two-time world champion and half sister to more champions than anyone who knew about these things could remember. And for an unfortunate reason I would soon discover, she was priced to sell.

My very first encounter with her should have sent me running for the hills, but she showed me something beautiful that day in a passing glance, and I took her home. Decisions based on passing glances arent without risk, and it wasnt long before I found myself late one afternoon midair between her back and the ground, where I lay for a few anxious moments wondering if I was going to walk again. Thats where our story begins.
