Actress, Mother, Star. Just...a Star

Here is a woman who is one of a kind. Graceful, loving, funny and beautiful, it is impossible for words to portray the full glory of this human being. The sight of her brings back fond memories.

Why do I love her so? Because of who she is, and who she encourages people to be, in both her acting and personal life. I'll let Mama Cass do the talking:

Nobody can tell ya;
There's only one song worth singin'.
They may try and sell ya,
'cause it hangs them up
to see somone like you.

But you've gotta make your own kind of music
sing your own special song,
make your own kind of music even if nobody
else sing along.

So if you cannot take my hand,
and if you must be goin',
I will understand.

You're gonna be knowing
the loneliest kind of lonely.
It may be rough goin',
just to do your thing's
the hardest thing to do.

But you've gotta make your own kind of music
sing your own special song,
make your own kind of music even if nobody
else sings along.

So if you cannot take my hand,
and if you must be goin',
I will understand.

You gotta make your own kind of music
sing your own special song,
make your own kind of music even if nobody
else sings along.

And as long as Julie is remembered, I think there is hope yet for the world.
