I had some moments crying during the movie because it brought back memories of when I was in a hospital 11 years ago fighting for my life in a series of surgeries after a severe car accident.<\/p>\n<p>This is a video of the boy in real life at 9 years old.<\/p>\n<p><object width=\"420\" height=\"315\" classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" codebase=\"https:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/QdUGoFTfP7w?version=3&amp;hl=en_US\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p>In this movie, the little four year old boy &#8220;saw&#8221; heaven, Jesus and angels. I experienced something similar but have been afraid to write about it because as an adult, anyone would dismiss it as having hallucinations. It is easier to try to listen to a little boy who is four years old and still question him and doubt him. But as an adult, you are easily labeled crazy.<\/p>\n<p>So the timing of my deleting all my files and going to see this movie today is hopefully taking me in a different direction of what I have been wanting to do here on Mi Caminar and that is to share more stories that happened to me in 2003. Stay tuned. As I said last year, my intention has been to <a title=\"Being Vulnerable\" href=\"https:\/\/www.micaminar.com\/en\/hispana-leadership-summit-2013-recap\/\" target=\"_blank\">be more vulnerable, <\/a>but sometimes <a title=\"My route as a turtle\" href=\"https:\/\/www.micaminar.com\/en\/celebrating-life-by-taking-the-route-of-the-turtle\/\" target=\"_blank\">I operate as a turtle<\/a>. It takes me a while. Being vulnerable is scary.<\/p>\n<p>So go see Heaven Is For Real! It is beautiful. Now I want to go buy the book.<br \/>\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/N-ewaCVARtM?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 Yesterday I accidently deleted all my documents and videos on my computer from last year.
