Wow such a touching experience shared by an angel as well. You are a blessing to those who know you. We never realize the lives touched by just one voice. A kind word of encouragement can last a lifetime. I will always remember the importance of kind acts or words because of how heavy negative comments can weigh down a person for a long time. 40 years after I graduated from HS I was attending an activity at our church when another woman came up to me and said, “Do you remember me? I was in you home room at Fresno High School and what you wrote in my year book on the last day of school changed my life for the better.” I didn’t remember of course, because I’m old now. I evidently simply wrote that she was even prettier in real life than her yearbook picture. Such a simple comment and such an easy thing to do.
I myself grew up with many insecurities and I believe my own life experiences caused me to look at others from a different perspective. I know that we are all loved very deeply by a Heavenly Father who wants us to succeed in life and simply know He is always there for us and walks with us in our trials.
Thank you for the opportunity to be a dear friend of our family. I know Trent has had an impact upon thousands because of his kindness and willingness to feel the need of those with heavy hearts and share a genuine spirit of love. He shared his heart and soul and now it is left for all of us to follow this example.
