Delilah on why LOVE MATTERS:
"I think love is really all that matters. It's love that's given me
my mission in life, to be a voice for those who have no voice. Love matters because
when all else passes away, it remains.
The stories in this book reaffirm the truth of this. I'm grateful to the listeners
who've shared their stories about how love has changed their lives for the better,
helping them to grow, to heal, to give back or pay forward, to find meaning and
purpose and beauty in life, to bring them closer to God and to the people in their
hearts and in their lives. I hope all who read their stories will be inspired to
love someone, and someone else, and someone else…"
About the Book:
Delilah opens her heart to explain why love is, truly, what matters most…
Delilah dominates nighttime radio with her mesmerizing voice and unique offering
of popular music, superb storytelling and sympathetic listening. The self-proclaimed
"Queen of Sappy Love Songs" describes her show as "a safety zone
where listeners take off their armor, slip into a comfortable cardigan, sit around
the electronic hearth and share their secrets." And every night across North
America more than eight million people tune in to hear Delilah play great love songs,
and also share great love stories from her dedicated listeners.
In this unforgettable book Delilah presents her favorite listener stories compiled
from the thousands she receives every week. From the heartwarming to the heartbreaking,
these powerful accounts include:
- The joyful reunion of a widow with her first love thirty-eight years after giving
birth to their child.
- A young woman's agonizing decision to renounce the love she found while working
at Ground Zero in the aftermath of 9/11.
- A Vietnam vet's riveting tale of an enemy captor's incredible sacrifice.
- A poignant encounter with a "Christmas angel" during one man's holiday
rounds as a professional Santa.
Just as she does on the radio, Delilah matches each story with an appropriate song,
truly bringing to the page the magic she shares on the airwaves. These emotional
accounts—and Delilah's reflections and stories from her own life—will encourage,
inspire and empower all who value loving relationships.
