Remember that e-mail that was floating around a few years back with the story about a little kid who was trying to buy a pair of gold houseshoes for his mom but didn't have enough money? The boy said that his mom's been sick and he wants to give her these special shoes so she can wear them when she goes to meet Jesus, and when the narrator heard this he forked over the rest of the amount so the kid could buy the shoes. That e-mail made me cry.

Well, a group called Newsong went and turned it into a song. They played it on the radio on my way into work this morning. At first I thought it was funny that a piece of chain spam got turned into a song, but then about half way through the song I broke down and started bawling. By the time I got to work I'd pretty much cried all of my makeup off, and now I'm all red and puffy and sniffly. Bastards.
