PL --

I know exactly what you mean. A few years ago, I lost both my parents and a child and a friend all within a few months of each other. Then, just as I determined that I would get up every morning and face the day whether there was a reason or not, I learned that I had cancer.

For the first time in my life, even with the powerful Faith that I do have, I was in BIG trouble emotionally.

One day, there was a flicker of light in all the darknss; there was a movie and an Actor who turned my head. Suffice it to say I did some of my best writing during that time. I used that man and his incredible talents to inspire me when I thought I had lost inspiration. Did I believe, at that time, that it was the the Actor who got me through it? You bet I did! I even went to NY to see him perform in a play that summer. Do I know better now? Yes I do. Now that I am physically and emotionally sound, I know that God brought me to it and He did, in fact, bring me through it. That Actor was that character, in that movie, at that place in time, and it all touched me the way it did - by the Grace of God.

I will always have a very special place in my heart for that Actor... forever - and he will never know. That is the way it goes.

If DHK did for you, this last year, what that other Actor did for me back then, I know that you feel that you love him. I thank God for him that he was able to do his best so that it touched you the way that it did and was such an integral part in turning your life around.

I cannot imagine a better purpose for any actor to aspire to than this; to so touch someone that they are able to rally themselves back to their life. I cannot imagine a better testimony to his gift of acting than this.

I have a very strong faith too, and here I am trying to make sense to what happens in life. The only thing that I know is that God works through people.
I want to go to LA and see Danny in person, but my feet are giving me so much trouble...I'm praying for a miracle!
The one question that goes through my mind is, 'What would I say to him to explain what he means to me, and how he inspired me?" When you try to tell someone, they look at you like you're nuts or something.
I laugh at little things now, and find enjoyment with the everyday things in life, that I never would have noticed last year.
