Inspirational Connection Newsletter & ArchiveCurrent Issue - "A Christmas Story "There was a baby born December 19, 1960 to Elizabeth and Eugene Price. He was the most beautiful baby born, he looked Angelic. They named him Lenny. Lenny was there first born son. He had one older sister named Wanda. Lenny started to grow and develop like most babies due and then one day he got very ill. Following a hospital stay for his illness his parents were told that he was blind and deaf and his condition compromised his immune system. The doctors said that he would be very susceptible to illnesses that most other children would naturally fight off. The family nurtured and showered this little “Angel” with unconditional love daily caring for his every need. Just shy of his 2nd birthday on November 30, 1962 he got ill and God sent an Army of Angels to bring him home and to join all of his other family members that had passed before him. His mother and father were devastated, he left behind his two other siblings, Wanda and now 6 month old brother Mark, his mom was pregnant with another child, Sharon and then one additional sibling named Donna was born 4 years later. This is my big brother, the one I speak so fondly about during all of my presentations and even though I did not know him in the flesh, our souls are connected and will meet face to face one day. He has been part of my journey and I know he has always watched over me and protected me from the other side just the way he would have done here on earth. Today is Lenny’s 50th Birthday, and notice I did not say would have been his 50th. It is his 50th birthday and I am sure they are all celebrating his big day there. You see life is as real there as it is here. It is simply just an absent of sight that separates us, that does not mean we cannot still share these precious moments together. We are meant to celebrate the life of those we miss and love until our eyes meet again. THEY ARE NOT LOST! Our loved ones are merely out of our sight temporarily. In honor of my Big Brothers 50th birthday, I am asking everyone who reads this message to light a candle at 7pm to celebrate his life. I am also passing on my latest ebook titled “Loss Of A Child”, which was written from my perspective of growing up in a family who experienced such a painful loss. This is the link Remember, to always celebrate the life of the ones you miss, the same way we celebrate the life of Christ every year. Just look at all of the work you put into celebrating the birth of Jesus and his life, how come you are not celebrating your own loved ones in the same way? Merry Christmas!
