The Brave Little Soul

5/30/2012

At the beginning of last year, I would search online with my questions, desperate pleas, anything to find any comfort,( I still do). And I found this story on  a website which was created by a dad for his baby boy who was in Heaven.

This story is  all  Alec:

  Not long ago in Heaven there was a little soul who took wonder in observing the world.  He especially enjoyed the love he saw there and often expressed this joy with God.  One day however the little soul was sad, for on this day he saw suffering in the world. He approached God and sadly asked,

"Why do bad things happen; why is there suffering in the world?"  God paused, for a moment and replied,  "Little soul, do not be sad, for the suffering you see, unlocks the love in people's hearts." God replied, "Have you not noticed the goodness and love that is the offspring of that suffering?  Look at how people come together, drop their differences and show their love and compassion for those who suffer. All their other motivations disappear and they become motivated by love alone." The little soul began to understand and listened attentively as God continued, "The suffering soul unlocks the love in people's hearts much like the sun and the rain unlock the flower within the seed.  I created everyone with endless love in their heart,  but unfortunately most people keep it locked up and hardly share it with anyone. They are afraid to let their love shine freely, because they are afraid of being hurt. But a suffering soul unlocks that love. I tell you this- it is the greatest miracle of all. vMany souls have bravely chosen to go into the world and suffer- unlock this love- to create this miracle- for the good of all humanity." Just then the little soul got a wonderful idea and could hardly contain himself. with wings fluttering, bouncing up and down, the little soul excitedly replied, " I am brave; let me go! I would like to go into the world and suffer so that I can unlock the goodness and love in people's hearts! I want to create that miracle!" God smiled and said, "You are a brave soul I know, and thus I will grant your request. But even though you are very brave you will not be able to do this alone. I have known since the beginning of time that you would ask for this and so I have carefully selected many souls to care for you on your journey. Those souls will help you create your miracle; however they will also share in your suffering. Two of these souls are the most special and will care for you and suffer along with you, far beyond the others. They have already chosen a name for you. In parting, God said, "Do not forget little soul that I will be with you always. Although you have agreed to bear the pain, you will do so through my strength. And if the time should come when you feel that you have suffered enough, just say the word, think the thought, and you will be healed." At that moment the brave little soul was born into the world, and through his suffering and God's strength, he unlocked the goodness and love in people's hearts. Many people dropped their differences and came together to show their love. priorities became properly aligned. People gave from their hearts. Those that were always too busy found time. Many began new spiritual journeys, some regained lost faith-many came back to God. Parents hugged their children tighter. Friends and family drew closer. Old friends got together and new friendships were made. Distant family reunited, and every family spent more time together. Everyone prayed. Peace and love reigned. Lives changed forever.  It was good. The world was a better place. The miracle had happened. god was pleased.

This is what Alec was all about--LOVE

I went back to this Dad'  website a few months ago and  saw that  the date his son went to Heaven was on October 23.  I did not see this the first time I found it.

Alec let his love shine freely on all of us. He truly is our miracle. God chose you, Keith, Cassidy & all our family & friends for Alec. Thank you, Laura, for sharing this story again. I read it often but it's still not enough.

I love you,

That Truly is Alec! When he was first diagnosed and things seemed so grim, he made a miraculous recovery, although it was still a long hard road for all of you, the love that this little boy poured out for everyone he met, and the way he made people come together, and the hope and the faith that he gave us is really quite amazing from such a little soul. That was beautiful and yet another sign from your little man.

Hi Laura, when you showed me this story last year, it brought tears to my eyes. I read it last night, tears. As I sit here and read it today, it brings tears. I have shared this story with many people since you shared it with me. I believe that the story is very much Alec and you guys. I am so glad you shared this , because you found it last year for a reason. Then to find that the date was the 23rd, was a second time to make sure your heart was open to it. Alec made sure you found that Oct 23rd later, on purpose.You are spreading his Love.. He does show us all things that we might have not opened are eyes enough to notice. He always did. Alecs unique closeness to god, things that were Magic, and being brave "Because I have to" sounds very much like the story. Thankyou again for this website... even on the days that you find harder... you can impact people more than you will ever know with Alecslove. Love Ya , Nicole

What an amazing little boy! I would always hear stories of how Alec wanted to go see "Mr. Barnsy" and how he loved to look at his model racecars or the corvette. He made everyone smile and my dad loved him like one of his own. God bless all of you.

What an amazing story ... this was, is and forever shall be Alec. This story not only reminds me of all the love miracles Alec brought to us all but what amazing and strong people you both are.

Reading this story made me wonder what the name Alec means. I was convinced that it had to do with "love". Because when I think of Alec only one word comes to mind, Alec means love. I just googled the meaning of the name Alec and it said "defender of humanity". Talk about meaning love.

Thank you for sharing.
Love you more
