When I wrote that article, I had to stop...Hi Nancy,<br />When I wrote that article, I had to stop several times because the emotions and the tears, became too much. Yet, I rejoice in the memory of a little boy who embraced life and dazzled the world with a beaming smile. <br />The A to Z Challenge can be darned good writing exercise. That would be if you have the time to do it along with your other commitments. Considering how busy you are, I find it amazing you are attempting to pursue the venture. Of course, like last year, I shall do the occasional satirical posting on it. Along with the occasional serious one. The irony is, that via my alleged, 'anti-A to Z' postings, I've brought a bit more awareness of it.<br />Always a pleasure to visit and leave a comment on your superb site, Nancy. I'm sorry I don't frequent more often. Of course, I have to share my 'eagerly anticipated' comments around blogland :) Thank you for such a kind and heartfelt comment on my site. Much respect and admiration to you. Happy writing and much success to you.<br />In kindness, Garyklahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-75205170502384709322012-04-11T23:54:58.722+00:002012-04-11T23:54:58.722+00:00Hi Jai,

We share the positive affects of support and encouragement as 'electric friends' :)<br />This was truly my hope, that through the resonance of the words in my article, we could all embrace the memory and sense the positive magic of that wonderful little boy. <br />In peace, Garyklahaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08613505424843475639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-30976957779621190612012-04-11T23:07:26.924+00:002012-04-11T23:07:26.924+00:00Oh my gosh, that is so very, very sad, Gary. I am...Oh my gosh, that is so very, very sad, Gary. I am so incredibly sorry. But your tribute is just about the most beautiful thing I've ever read. And as sad as this is, I am so glad that you have 5 years of cherished memories. It truly is better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all. <br /><br />And I so understand you NOT doing the A to Z Challenge. I didn't really WANT to do it either, but I felt it was probably good for me if I did. Unfortunately, the first week, I was in Arizona visiting colleges with my son, and this second week, I've been neck deep in revisions for my publisher so I've had very little time to make the rounds and therefore make friends. Maybe next week I will have more time. <br /><br />Anyway, I love it when you drop by and leave your wonderful comments. They are ever cherished and you are a very dear friend who always has a smile and a kind word, no matter the circumstances. I seriously love that about you! Take care and God bless!!Nancy Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05735642863696266005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4219984917795758890.post-15012681995212711082012-04-11T22:38:08.030+00:002012-04-11T22:38:08.030+00:00It always strikes me how every life we come into c...It always strikes me how every life we come into contact with affects us in some way.<br /><br />That little boy touched your life as he must have touched so many other lives.
