David Williamson

Magical Moments are rare, it's one of the reasons we find them magical.  

This past week, quite unexpectedly, I found myself in middle of an inspiring, beautiful, and magical moment.   I'm currently teaching a class in London and, as part of the class, invited our neighbor, Roger Williamson, to help lead the discussion.  During his time with us he read a letter his father, David Williamson, wrote to his godson, Neil Scott Piercy, in 1942.  The letter was to be opened on Neil's 16th birthday, May 15th, 1958.   As he read, the class was silent and transfixed.  For me, everything paused as I listened to Roger's deep voice and flowing English accent bring his father's words to life.

I invite you to pause your day for 20 minutes and listen.  I invite you listen to this voice speak wisdom into your life from across time. 

I should point out that in 1942 the future of our world was still very much  in question.  Also, no Williamson male had lived past 45, so David was doubtful he would live to see his godson's 16th birthday.  He passed away seven years later in 1949.  

I'm am grateful to Roger for allowing me to share this letter with you.  I hope you find it as magical as I did.
