The Power of One
Wednesday, November 26, 2008
In an instant, a lesson in love can touch the hearts of millions. I took a few moments in between work projects to view an ABC news feature about a terminally ill, 11 year-old boy, Brendan Foster. While returning from a clinic visit, he noticed a circle filled with homeless people--his wish was to feed them. Although Brendon was extremely weak from his long battle with leukemia, his wish caught media attention inspiring willing hearts to take action, igniting the giving spirit coast-to-coast.

From this one dying wish, many rose up in service; tens of thousands were fed. What a demonstration of how the desires of one loving heart ripple to the core of others to manifest a miracle. Brendon witnessed that power in motion before he died last Friday. One heart’s desire, granted by the many moved to action, providing a legacy of love and a feast for the spirit.

Have you seen something you might do that could make a difference? Sometimes the very act of simply making it known can inspire the support of legions. Brendon’s wish demonstrates how others can breathe life into a dream, with a reach beyond the wildest imaginations. Everything is possible. http://cosmos.bcst.yahoo.com/up/player/popup/index.php?cl=10831031
