Unintended Reverberation

Dear Elton John,
I hope you don't mind I wrote down these words ...

Thank you so much for writing "Your Song"

This morning I was listening to music as I cleaned my floor. There I was, down on my hands and knees, wondering how many times I have ever cleaned that darn floor and how many more floors I will have to clean until the end of my life. I was feeling like the unknown princess, unappreciated, unrecognized, taken for granted. I started thinking about Princess Di. I wondered if Princess Di ever cleaned a floor ... or mowed grass .. or made her own dress. Never did really see a single thing I had in common with that woman. Or why I cried when she died in that terrible accident.
When "Your Song" played
that part about making the sun shine brighter ....
Some songs like "Your Song" are capable of lifting my heart, I can fly, I can soar, I can see the world from ten thousand feet and that dirty floor doesn't even matter anymore.

Thank you so much for the pep up.
How wonderful life is because you are in the world Sir Elton John.
