Nat's Art from the Heart

Nat's Art from the Heart Art and Floral Design by Natalie Young August 18, 2021, the world as I knew it ended. I watched as my precious 16 year old son, JD, took his last breaths.

They always say the death of a child is the worst emotional pain a person can bear. I agree. It broke me. It changed me. It humbled me to my core. Following the decline in JD's health and eventual death, art and design was/is a very therapeutic creative outlet for me. I've spent many hours in my little red shed painting anything I can get my hands on. Mostly old wood that has been generously gifte

d to me. I like things that tell a story. My mind always wanders to what that particular piece of old wood has "seen" in it's lifetime. This little business of mine will always honor JD and all the children born with special little hearts. Each of my paintings contains a hidden little red heart. This little red heart is a tribute to my son and the other precious children like him who suffer from congenital heart disease. They are the strongest fighters I know...…

"Tiny Little Heart"

In this painting you will find
A tiny little heart
Hidden in the strokes
Of all my handmade art

I place it there to honor
Children with broken hearts
Precious little souls
Fighters from the start

Every time you see it
Please whisper a little prayer
For all the precious babies
Born with hearts so rare

They are all so special
Broken, yet they shine
And I’m so very proud
Of the one that I called mine

“Last night I bought a sunflower to put on the windshield of someone I’m smitten with.

After some consideration, I decided not to since we had only been on one date, the night previous. Don’t want to come off too strong, right?

Anyway, I grabbed the flower on my way out this morning with the intention to give it to someone on my way to work so it didn’t die alone.

What happened next has left me changed in ways I don’t even have words for yet.

While I was sitting and drinking my morning joe at the coffee shop (which I typically take to go), I saw a woman reading something with tears quietly and quickly sliding down her pale face.

It was like there was a magnet in the sunflower that was being drawn to her, because I knew in that moment she was who I was going to give the sunflower to; she was who I had to give it to.

When I got to her table I said, ‘Hey, pardon me. I have this sunflower that I was hoping to give to someone special and that someone I had in mind didn’t work out, but I can feel that you’re special too, so I want you to have it.’

Before I could even hand her the sunflower, this complete stranger flew into my arms with tears flowing, and gratitude spewing, as if I was someone she once loved, and lost.

It’s what she said next that I’m still trying to grip.

She was crying because her fiancé had died the week before, just months before they were going to get married.

On their first date, he brought her a sunflower and from then on, got her sunflowers, never roses, because she was the light of his life.

Today, through me, he was able to show her that she’ll always be the light of his life and how we as humans have a message to carry that goes far beyond words.

I’m shaken, awakened, and feeling raw.

You never know how much a simple gesture of giving someone a $5 flower will change their life, as well as yours. Life is about giving and being of service to others.

I challenge you all to find a way to make someone else’s life just a little bit brighter today and be of service. You never know the impact you could have.”
