Re: a song to cheer you up
Hey cossy.............THIS WAS GREAT!!!!! Took me away and I needed that. Thanks, cossy.
And go to youtube and play Kenny Loggins, "This is It"...........
soulbrothanumbahoneMany people believe that this is a love song when in fact that isn't true.
I read on Kenny Loggins's website that while this song did begin as a love song, after visiting his sick father in the hospital, he transformed this record into an inspirational song to encourage his father. His father was gravely ill and could elect to undergo further treatment that could prolong his life but could also lead to a painful recovery process. The inspiration worked! His father did undergo the treatment, and he lived for another four years. This song has become an anthem of hope for me. I believe that there is a defining day in everyone's life that could alter their destiny for the better.
