Mattie

I’m not one to post sappy stuff so you should take this seriously:

I worked at an ABC affiliate for two years. After we wrapped our morning show, Good Morning America would follow. Thus, I would often see a lot of episodes of that program. During those two years, they spoke with a boy named Mattie Stepanek multiple times. He was a little kid who despite having muscular dystrophy and having lost all three of his siblings to the disease had a very positive outlook on life. He wrote poetry books and worked with organizations to try to bring peace to the world. He died yesterday.

I think everyone could learn a lot from this child’s short life.

here is a news story for those interested.
