as i walked through the hospital corridors br i saw this child coming towards ne br her head was shaven and very red. br she looked up and smiled at me br and made my heart skip a beat. br br in a voice so soft that i could hardly hear br she wished me joy and good cheer. br i knew right from the start br that this child had a loving heart. br br for even though she was in pain br from everything that she had gone through br and it was hard for her to walk br she stopped and smiled and started to talk. br br she was born with a sickness at birth br and was daily fighting for her life. br but she had such faith in god above br that she would be alright br and knew that she had to fight. br this battle that they said she could not win br but to her -giving up was a sin. br br i started to choke up inside and the tears started to roll br from my eyes.she gently wiped away my tears. br and whispered gently in my ear. br br if only the world could see and feel what i have br locked up inside-that god has given me br there would be peace and harmony. br br for the lord has shown me what is on the other side when i die br but! i will be here for a very long time. br for there are many hearts i've yet to touch br before i am taken away. br and true love will forever stay. br br i started to choke up again, and when i looked up again she was gone. br br till this day i ask myself who could this child have been? br that put faith back in my heart and showed me br the unconditional love from god above.
