hello everyone, did another concert at my grandmother's nursing home saturday. an afternoon of love songs, what a fantastic experience again. opened with up-tempo song, then took it down to smooth ballads, then took it up-tempo again, then down again. meaningful beautiful songs. i was in good voice and engaged the audience from the time i started singing. they were an amazing audience,
and i treated them like kings and queens.

then after my show i went up to each person and took their hands, the expression of gratitude was overwhelming.

the very last woman i went up to, took 30 seconds (she is a stroke patient) to tell me,
I.......Love.....You. i put my hand on the side of her face and the tears just flowed from her eyes.

if you ever ask yourself, why should you do something nice for someone? ask yourself, why "shouldn't" i do something nice for someone?

my heart is still full....

By posting, you confirm that you have read and agreed to be bound by the board's usage terms.

For those who might be late comers to this board, Dory was a poster who we will remember as one who gave of herself so others survivors might smile. She always kept this board moving with her inspirational poems, jokes and riddles. Most will give Dory credit for energizing this board. She was an inspiration to everyone on this board. In that spirit, let us continue to post in Dory�s memory so she might smile down on us and give us the same inspiration. Therefore, we have named the board, Dory's Board, in her memory. 11/11/01 (Dory was the first to call attention to the significance of 9/11, re: WTC tragedy, i.e. 911 for emergency). Let me be the first to note all the ones in the above date, indicating she was No. 1 on our board.
