Someone I met today lost his son a year ago.
This fellow came through, wearing dark jeans and a black polo. He was so sure of himself when he walked, his confident strides through causing people to quicken their pace. Out of place was a small felt heart pinned to the left side of his shirt.
"Excuse me, sorry, do you mind if I ask you what the heart is for?"
"No. I don't mind. My wife and I lost our son a year ago, and we pin this to our shirts everyday to remind us how precious life is."
Did not expect that, and I felt sad... I didn't ask what the kid died from, but here's an organization that supports pediatric cancer research that my friend feels very passionately about.
