Hi Everyone,

Mattie Stepanek, a wonderful young man has crossed.

He is a beautiful, gentle Spirit who's life work was to be a peacemaker. He died at 13 years of age. If you are not familiar with his books, all of which have "Heartsongs" somewhere in the title, please give them a chance. He was an incredible poet who started writing at 3 years old. Despite being confined to a wheelchair most of his life, as was his mother, with a very rare form of Muscular Dystrophy, he also outlived 3 of his siblings. He had a very tough life, but through it all remained full of love for living, for life, for others. Whether you knew of him or not, his work as a peacemaker will ripple out to you, to all of us.

Godspeed Mattie. Thankyou for sharing your time with us.

With light and love,
Featherpoint

Hi FP...
Matt was an exceptional human being..
I send to him an Eagle Feather,
Peace gentle soul...

He was a "child" who understood things,
us adults struggle with.

I am lucky to have 2 of his poetry books and
posted a few of my favorates on the RC a
year ago or so.

His Smile & Enthuiastic Energy will be certainly
missed...

What a very special soul Mattie was. I remember the first time I saw him speak and tell people about his poetry. You could just tell he was here on the earth at this time for a very special reason. He was such a wise earth-angel. He was a blessing to so very many people. Let us remember his family at this time and send them love & light. He was and continues to be an inspiration to me personally and to many other people, I am sure.
