A Boy's Dying Wish

[Rayn]

Not sure if anyone saw this at all, but I caught this on the Yahoo main page while at work and watched the video and at the end I definitely felt more appreciative and more in tune with "giving thanks". The kid had one hell of a soul and courage from watching this vid.

That is amazing. He is something people should dream of becoming.

I wish we could all live our lives knowing what's really important like that. It's terrible that it takes a tragedy for us to really see it. Definitely gives some perspective, and you're right, it's a very appropriate time for his message. I hope when my time comes I have as much courage and grace as that young one.

What a sweet boy he was.

Amazing what people can do if they try, even a kid like him.

A little kid like that dies while others throw tantrums, fight, vandalize, and take what they have for granted.

At least he got to see his wish granted.

this brought a tear to my eye

What a selfless individual in deed

I teared up a bit too, Reminds me of my buddy shawn whom fell into a coma on my bday and passed away a short time later, The man was near 40...and no one could think of a single unkind thing to say about him, he lived his life putting others first...even when he was ill and time was running out, he put everyone else first. I am so privileged to have known him. The band he managed just released a new album...with almost every song being about him.
This kid knew way ahead of his years what life was about, and thats exactly how i have been living my life since june of this year, and i have not been happier or more at ease with life than i am now.
Nothing that has ever come up has been able to keep me down or cause me worry. I just stay relaxed and caring...and its a great feeling.
Its people like this boy, that made me realize where i needed to change.
