I don't know what happened out

there or what you done, but...

I surely, surely will.

She want me to tell you thanks,

thanks for having her

out to the farm.

Now look what you done to me.

I told the Lord

that I would stop drinkin'

if my baby ever talked again.

Ah, you, uh...

you want to come inside?

I'd love to.

Okay.

Squeeze my hand when you

want me to open my eyes.

Oh, that's us.

It's beautiful.

I love it.

Look at all this.

Did you draw this?

Where...

Where did you see this?

Keisha?

Please, baby, tell me

where you saw this!

Keisha, please!

Where did she see this?

Did somebody show this to her?

Macon!

It was Tee.

He showed her one day.

Said it was the only thing

he could draw good.

Baby, what has gotten into you?

I have to go.

I'm Samantha Crawford.

You killed my husband.

How'd you find me?

Don't!

You don't want to do that now.

You need to hear

what I got to say to you,

'cause your husband, he...

he wanted me

to tell you something.

I know you're not

gonna believe me,

but I need you to try.

You already know

that I was there.

My man, you did it.

It was just a transformer.

I appreciate it.

You got some coffee on?

Ain't nothin' to make you some.

All right.

Hey, you live around here?

You need a ride?

Headin' over to my cousin's

when the rain lets up.

Could be a while.

Can I get you something?

No, man.

No.

been five minutes,

and he was back out the door

with a sandwich and some coffee.

He sat with me for an hour

in that rain,

and we talked.

We talked about

a lot of things.

But his truck wouldn't start,

and I helped him

fix it, though,

'cause I always

been good with cars.

He told me he wanted

to see me again

and said he'd be back

the next day.

And then I watched him go.

I appreciate it.

Hey, no, I wouldn't.

You be safe, okay?

Thanks again, man.

Have a good one.

All right.

Hey!

Hey!

It's gonna be okay.

It's gonna be all right.

Is this what you want?

Look, I'm gonna go get help.

No, no.

he closed his eyes,

he told me something.

He said, "Tell Sam...

always walk on the clouds."

I knew they'd blame me,

Since that day,

I ain't never been the same

'cause of your husband.

Did he give you anything else?

Yes, ma'am.

you'll never know

what it's meant to me

seeing your face again,

that loving

little redheaded girl

who welcomed a stranger

as a friend."

"It's been hard to see

those once hopeful eyes

now only carrying

the pain of a shattered life."

"Well, I know those eyes

all too well,

but with pain comes

a new way of seeing things."

"You see, here

at the edge of death,

I never felt more alive."

"I know that I've done

what I was created to do,

to love these kids."

"I knew Denise

couldn't do it alone,

and then you came along."

"Well, maybe these kids can help

you find your way again, Sam,

like they did me."

Heard what happened

to your husband.

I'm so sorry, child.

No, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean

to cause any trouble.

Oh, you're no trouble, baby.

You family.

wrote about God and the sparrow?"

"I heard you say you didn't

believe it anymore,

and that's okay."

"He's patient."

"I'm proof of that."

"Whatever happens,

I have peace,

and I only want

the same for you."

"Find your stride, Sam."

"Share your stories."

"They matter."

"Live, breathe,

and find a way

to believe again."

Life is so beautiful,

so full of magic

and possibilities.

I thought that my story

had come to an end,

but I was wrong.

"Once upon a time, there lived

a little baby oriole bird."

"His mama called him Firebird

on account of his amazingly

beautiful orange feathers."

"Now, little Firebird,

he just lived for the sunshine."

"He would bask

in that sunshine for hours."

find something

that I had lost along the way,

something I had once

believed so strongly...

that the storms of life

are bound to come,

but that maybe

even in those storms,

in the loneliest times of all,

you're never really alone.

Love is the most powerful

thing on earth.

I've seen what it can do,

and it can do amazing things.

Sometimes I imagine a world

where everyone knows a love

that's unconditional,

and what a beautiful world

it is.

I think Billy had it right,

that there truly is

enough love to go around.

All you have to do is share it.

What if God's

love is like the sun,

constant and unchanging?

What if you woke up

one day and realized...

nothing can take that away?
