Re: I Wish I Could Tell Him
Hope I don't bore you, but I have a personal story... I might have told it before here.
I was able to meet GL after a concert in W. Virginia a couple of years ago...
After we talked for awhile he had to go, and before he left, I looked him straight in the eye, and I mentioned how much his music meant to me and how I came to depend on it through the years. I went into greater detail than here... I always wanted to tell him that, to his face... and I thought, when he was very ill, that I would never be able to tell him. So, I wasn't going to blow this opportunity. He is getting older, like the rest of us, and you never know when you won't see someone again.
It was VERY easy to speak with him. Almost like a grandfather... he was very kind to me and my family.
Since that time, almost two years ago, I have been more open with my family and friends and I tell them how much I love them, or appreciate them. Hate to be dramatic, but talking with GL and telling him my feelings, changed my life a bit.....for the better.
Hope this didn't bore you... probably a number of you had the same experience.
