we all can make a difference if we just open our hearts

I really hope you all take a moment to read this. It was forwarded to me in an email, but I despise forwards, so I'm putting it here.

It struck a chord in me, and I hope it stops and makes you think too. Feel free to leave your thoughts and share with anyone.

Two Choices. What would you do? ....you make the choice. Don't look for a punchline,

I'm pretty sure I've heard that before but still a good story. Sad they did lose him though.

That's a lovely story.

It's reassuring to know that:

* there are people like Shay's parents, who instill in their sons the courage and confidence to try and do what others might tell them they cannot.

* there are kids like Shay, who learn that loving lesson and aren't afraid to put it in practice.

* there are young men who, at an early age, know what their priorities should be.

Wonderful story. Thanks for sharing.

Aw, I think I've read this before, but I still got tears in my eyes. Shit like this (especially sports-related) will always, always get me.
