You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: R. Shay Subject: RE: My Son Ryan Shay Body: One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one beloning to him and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it. "Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me." The Lord replied "My precious, precious child, I love you and would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffereing, when you see only one set of footprints in the sand, it was then that I carried you." I'm at a loss of words, Ryan was an unbelievably thoughtful human being...I know that there's little that could be said to lessen your pain, so I figured this passage to be appropriate. Keep in mind that the life he lived should be one that is to be celebrated. However short it may have been; he was an extraordinary person who did extraordinary things. This is coming from a person who knew him for a mere 3 weeks; but I can confidently say that his character is one that inspires. - Seth Hit the submit button below if you want us to review the post.
