Kleenex was Needed - Story Making A Difference

By
Home Stager with Innovative Artistry

I am doing fly by(s) with my Social Medias the past few weeks, since my Mom's little setback & trying to align things a bit differently as a result.  Amazingly though, despite the briefness, I have discovered some stories that have just so moved my heart.  I do regret that it will most likely be the first of the year before I am in position to be back in alignment with posting, blogging & commenting....but as I see stories.  I will not be able to help but share them as time permits.

This one...well I could not let time go any further without sharing the link.  A friend shared it on Facebook & I have always felt that we never know what someone else is feeling unless we take the time & try to walk in their shoes... 

This story, well I think those of you that know me by now, know how I felt.  Of course Kleenex was required & I am paying it forward!  I will try to do better after the next few weeks....but until then ~

What a beautiful story Pam - tragic beginning but wonderful ending. It's very true, you just never know how you can influence somebody and typically it's the small stuff that makes the biggest difference.

I hope you are hanging in there and all will be well! Sending some healing thoughts and hugs your way.

It is a great story and there is so much truth to how life is perceived by someone that is unaware of the happenings in some other persons life. Thanks Pam for sharing.

Pam;

Today you affected change in another's life simply by posting this.  Education isn't always about teaching math, etc, but about encouraging the children to grow.  We have all been touched by that one teacher that took special interest in our lives and encouraged new insights and challenged us to be something more.  Yes, tears, not from the story, but rather from the knowledge that our education system doesn't encourage the children and longing for the day when great teachers are rewarded more than a football player for inspiring a child.

Hi Pam, I don't know how I missed this story from so many days ago; so sad and heartwarming at the same time. It just makes us pause for a minute because we never know what's behind someone's unruly behavior and if we can just take the time to find out, well, sometimes that's all it takes to make a difference. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and wish you only the best for the coming new year.
