Would You Hug a One-Legged Homeless Person
Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) January 28, 2015 -- Jeffery C. Olsen is pleased to announce the release of his short film “Lift.” Jeff wanted to conduct an experiment to see if anyone would give him a hug if he sat on the corner with a cardboard sign. You can watch it here.
Jeff’s life changed after his near-death experience. Jeff learned to choose joy in enduring the trials after the accident that took half his family and his left leg. “Choose Joy,” is the message he heard from his time in heaven and wants to share it with the world.
Jeff has written his story in two best-selling books, “I Knew Their Hearts,” and “Beyond Mile Marker 80.”
"If a drunk driver had run us off the road, killing my wife and youngest child, I suppose I could eventually have forgiven that person. If our vehicle had been tossed from the freeway by powerful crosswinds, I suppose I could have forgiven God. But if I fell asleep at the wheel, then it's my fault. And what do you say to a man who feels responsible for the death of half of his family?"--Jeff Olsen, describing his grief.
