I don't often share viral videos in my blogs but every once in a while I just have to make an exception. Usually it's when the message touches me or the video moves me emotionally. The way I see it, if I react like that , odds are most of you will as well...

I don't tell this story to receive praise or to make me seem better than anyone else in the world, in fact the reason I wanted to share this moment with you is quite the opposite. I tell this story to remind everyone that every time we interact with another person we could potentially be making a real and lasting  impact on their life...

Kids today are feel so entitled, kids today are so greedy, kids today don't appreciate their parents these are thing we hear everyday and unfortunately in many cases it's true. What we all have to remember is that it is not always true and the world is full of wonderful kids who are selfless and bright and loving, if you need a reminder of that as we all sometimes do you will love this video.

"The world will forget about this little girl in one week." That is a quote I read today while getting myself updated on little Safyre Terry. At first, I thought that this may actually be a sad truth and then I realized that not only is it not true, but I also realized that there is nothing sad about this story or this beautiful little girl.
