I hope it's OK to make a separate topic out of this. Maybe I have PMS, but I was sobbing in my corn flakes this morning looking at this. Trent showed us all the power a person has to make a difference for someone else. No matter what our struggles are (and we all have them), there is always an opportunity to do something to help someone else, and this is what our better nature tells us to do. As the young boy's father put it, "There aren’t many times when Louis feels lucky (I.e. when kids are running around playing football,eating for themselves, having a conversation, dressing themselves...) but I bet he feels lucky today."
Please give the article a read - and you may want a tissue while you do.

Inspiring.
Now I'm feeling even happier about yesterday.
