Fellow saint and sinner Paul sent along this heartwarming video about a boy whose wish came true. Eight-year-old Atticus in Portland, Oregon, loves soccer. He also happens to have cancer. One day he got his wish: to play the Portland Timbers; Atticus’ team, The Green Machine, took on the Timbers before a stadium of 3,000-plus fans who showed up just to watch Atticus score the winning goal– all this thanks to the work of the Make-A-Wish Foundation and its many supporters.

Why wish for a game and not a trip to an amusement park? “Usually kids just choose to go to Disneyland with their family or getting something,” Atticus explained. “I chose something that lots of people could do.”

I wonder what the world might look like if we spent more time helping one another’s dreams come true, and then joining in the celebration.
