LIFE'S REASON TO BE

When I first heard this song, it was before I adopted my son. He was one of hundreds of students I had at the time. I was his music teacher in school.

The song's lyrics ~

"If it all falls apart,
I will know deep in my heart
the only dream that mattered had come true:
In this life I was loved by you" said what I felt.

Then when my father died, I put the lyrics to this song on the poster with all the pictures I displayed at dad's funeral.

When we love ~ we have found life's true purpose. There is nothing that compares with knowing how it feels to love another.

The lyrics

. . . Let the world stop turning.
Let the sun stop burning.
Let them tell me love's not worth going through.
If it all falls apart,
I will know deep in my heart
the only dream that mattered had come true:
In this life I was loved by you.

For every mountain I have climbed,
every raging river crossed,
you were the treasure that I longed to find.
Without your love I would be lost.

Let the world stop turning.
Let the sun stop burning.
Let them tell me love's not worth going through.
If it all falls apart,
I will know deep in my heart
the only dream that mattered had come true:

In this life I was loved by you.

I know that I won't live forever,
but forever I'll be loving you.

Let the world stop turning.
Let the sun stop burning.
Let them tell me love's not worth going through.
If it all falls apart,
I will know deep in my heart
the only dream that mattered had come true:
In this life I was loved by you
In this life I was loved by you

Special Message To You From Bette Midler


Dear Friends,

Bette Midler Like many of you, I have recently been deeply affected by the terrible suffering of the people of Darfur, Sudan. Over the last two years, over 380,000 people have died, and 2 million driven from their homes by a brutal campaign of repression by the Sudanese government. Darfur's women have been targeted for systematic rape and brutality.

This terrible inhumanity must stop. It affects all of us, because we are all connected in one human family. But to stop it you and I need to rise up and be heard. We CAN stop the killing, if we can persuade our government to put enough pressure on the Sudanese government and its allies to make them stop. Please take just 3 minutes today, right now, to send a strong message to President Bush, or donate money to advocacy or humanitarian aid.

Thanks so much for your time. There is always hope, let's keep it alive for our brothers and sisters in Darfur, and be their heroes.

Sincerely,

Bette Midler
