I am riding with Bob Weir in his car on a sunny afternoon in San Francisco.

We witness a miracle.

As he´s driving down the road, we are talking about top ten hit songs on the radio, and Weir says “The Grateful Dead would like to have one of those.” We look at the car ahead of us and the license plate has no numbers, only the word “HIT”.

"Is that God or coincidence?" Bob asks.

There are many extraordinary moments like this in

the lives of the Grateful Dead.

I´m just a storyteller but I don´t have the talent they do,

but feel great inspiration from their music!

 Their lives were extremely difficult, and we all struggled with our sins, and they truly help people everywhere. I once asked Jerry Garcia, in Philadelphia, “Do you believe in a chosen people?” Some of the band and crew are there when he answers, “Some people talk about the 144,000 or whatever number of people that are going to be saved. But I don´t believe in any of the numbers. I´m not satisfied until everyone comes around and all are included. Like the song says, I ain´t always right but I´ve never been wrong.”

The Grateful Dead reach out to everyone, and there are many Deadhead stories that share how they influence and help our lives by putting a sparkle of magic into us. They aren´t doing it for the money. There´s nothing wrong with having money!

But the Bible says “The love of money is the root of all evil.” (1Timothy6:10).

The true goal is that we will all get to Heaven, the Promised Land, where we can listen to the Grateful Dead forever and ever. All of us, including the members of the band, would have to overcome many obstacles and difficulties to get there.

We all struggle with the challenge.

“Dark is the sky! & veiled the unknown morrow.

Dark is life´s way for the night is not yet over.” 

a thousand years bringing true peace, and healing

and effectively stopping sickness and premature death.

The timing of when things will change only God knows.

 I feel a very deep spiritual connection to the Grateful Dead.

He is a writer, poet and storyteller.
