Uplifting Song By Guitar Hero Jason Becker Whose Career Was Cut Short By ALS

With all the stuff that's going on in the world today because of the coronavirus, it's easy to feel sad and frustrated, especially if you've been sick, or have been laid off. During these tough times, we need to step back and count our blessings, realizing that there are people in the world who are much worse off than us. When we see a person overcome their hardships, it encourages us to push through the difficulties that we are experiencing.

This song really touched me the first time I listened to it. It was written by Jason Becker, who at one time was one of the finest guitarists in the world. In 1996, Becker lost the ability to speak, and he now communicates with his eyes via a system developed by his father. Despite his disability, he continues composing by using a computer.

I hope this song touches you as much as it touched me. God bless.

Wow! So heartbreaking yet beautiful. It is always so difficult seeing someone's life slowly fade away like this.
