It cleansed my spirit. It reinforced my belief in God. And it gave me permission to wash away the grief, because it reminded me again in such a poignant way that God is THERE for all of us. Thank you.

This is incredible. I haven't cried since my husband died suddenly nine years ago. I had to be strong. I didn't cry at the time of 9/11, because I had to be strong. I cried today when I heard this beautiful piece.

I know EXACTLY what you mean.
And, just in time for Christmas.

SPECIAL THANKS to nationally syndicated talk show host Mike Gallagher:

Mike Gallagher's road to becoming one of America's fastest-growing nationally syndicated radio talk show hosts began in 1978 as a 17-year-old high school senior in Dayton, Ohio. Taking a tour of his hometown talk radio station, WAVI, Mike saw a memo on the bulletin board stating that the station was in search of a young talk host. Figuring he had to be one of the leading contenders based on his age, he marched into the program director's office and announced that he was the man for the job. That night, he was on the air and within a week he had his first full-time stint in broadcasting. When the management of WAVI discovered they had hired a high school senior, they quickly put a clause in his contract mandating that he never publicly reveal his age. So began a colorful broadcasting career that has culminated in being heard around the country. In it's first few months of launching the national program, The Mike Gallagher Show is heard on over 200 radio stations in communities all over the country, framed by markets like Seattle, Sacramento, Jacksonville, Los Angeles, and New York City.
Mike can seem a bit "goofy" at times, but he has a heart of gold, and his aggressive promoting of THIS SONG has forever earned him a GREAT DEAL of respect from listeners like me.

Glad you finally let the sluice-gates open.
You must be a tough cookie...I suspect there's hardly been a week since 9-11 happened
that I haven't gotten a bit chocked up over something to do with the WTC, the Pentagon,
Flight 93, death of Mike Spann, etc.

Your body (especially your endocrine system) probably thanks you for finally letting go!
