And Never Stopped Applauding..by Michael
A Story by Michael Reisman
Audrey was born with a crippling back disorder that had her in
a wheelchair while growing up. However that never stopped her from doing
everything normal kids do. It just took her a little longer to get where she was
going. Audrey was good student in school and graduated with excellent grades. A
particular talent of hers was the beautiful voice she had which soon would be
recognized. It was at a local talent contest when she sat before the audience on
stage in her wheelchair. The host lowered the microphone stand as the lights
dimmed and she began to sing. Some of the guests cried at the beautiful voice of
a very emotional love song. When it was over, they all stood up out of their
seats and never stopped applauding. A talent scout who happened to be there that
evening, smiled and recognized a pure and genuine future artist. He met with the
twenty one year old Audrey after the show as she signed a record contract with a
major label. A hit single launched her first album which sold over a million
copies. Audrey was ready now for her first tour in concert. Her talent agent was
now the promoter of all future recordings and live performances. Allen was only
twenty five years old, just a few years older than Audrey. It was at one live
performance where he walked on to the stage and lowered the microphone stand for
the young lady in a wheelchair. Then he dropped to one knee and took out an
engagement ring and proposed to her before a live audience of over five thousand
guests. Audrey raised herself up and stood out of a lifelong wheelchair. It was
captured on live television and before over five thousand guests. She walked a
few feet to where he stood as he put the ring on her finger. Maybe love has
something to do with miracles that cannot be explained. Some of the guests at
their wedding cried at the beautiful voice of a very emotional love song. When
it was over, they all stood up out of their seats and never stopped
applauding....
