The Real Heart Of Gold: The Wyatt Erber Story - 8 year old gives $1000 to 2year old battling leukemia

The Real Heart Of Gold: The Wyatt Erber Story
Wyatt Erber, 8, with his neighbor, 2-year-old leukemia patient Cara Kielty.



We get so caught up living our lives wanting and needing that we forget to appreciate just how blessed we are. In the spirit of Sunday, I’ll love if while you’re reading this post, you take a moment to think about the refreshing air around you, the assurance of every dawn you see. How blessed you are to be able to read this post.

I don’t want to go all churchy on you; God knows my plans are far from that. I saw a picture of two young children retweeted to my timeline and decided to read their story. It is a story about the selflessness of an eight year old boy who gave a thousand dollars to his two year old neighbour suffering from cancer. His story is unique in many ways, not only in the graciousness of his giving but also from his deep sense of responsibility and sensitivity. How many of us care enough to know about situations those around us are stuck in and moreso, what have we done to help them?
