Well, Tony Bennett has done it yet again. Do you ever get that nostalgic feeling of jumping up in a warm bed at night? This may sound pompous, but I still get that feeling with my love. Well, I was fortunate to be gifted Tony Bennett's original signed copy of his autobiography, 'Life is a Gift.' I have found that the small, simple things mean so much more than the extravagant things.
Two great quotes in his book have molded certain parts of my life: "When the uncreative tell the creative what to do, it stops becoming art." and "Never underestimate the knowledge or understanding of the public."
I think Alexander Powell and Sanford taught each other these virtues, with the help of their art teacher Sally, of course. I met Tony while living in New York and his editorial skills aren't as good as his voice--but hey, we can't be perfect at every thing!
For those couples who doubt one another, remember a lyric from one of his songs...
"With all your faults, I love you still...It had to be you."
Remember--I'm only an e-mail away.
Sincerely,
Will
