I've always been sort of taken with music. It really touches me on a deep level. Songs that reach my heart are the ones that stay with me for a lifetime.
In 1997, my ex-husband, David, and I had the privilege of seeing John Denver perform with the Houston Symphony Orchestra. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. He was so magical almost, the way he drew everyone in. Just a few short weeks later, he was gone.
I've been listening to some John Denver music tonight. I think my husband, Preston, thinks I have lost my mind. I'm in here singing away and crying. They're tears of sadness because John Denver is no longer here to make such beautiful music, but they're tears of joy because the music really is so beautiful.
So, that's my melancholy post for today... as I sit here listening to such wonderful music.
