On the Talents Show on board the cruise ship Royal Carribean for a HS reunion— a rather shaky rendition of this song!

What happened the next day was unexpected. While in line for breakfast, a young man approached me and said: “I was so touched by your song, I cried.”

This experience taught me: I will never know how my song would affect anyone, but if only one in a thousand is impacted by my singing— that would be enough, for the beauty of music never fails to touch the heart. November 16, 2023
