widget question

Stumped on a question...
I have a post, and I want to pull in a sample to a sidebar widget in wordpress.
Any idea how to do this so it's automatically updated, not a copy-paste exercise for me?

Just use the standard recent posts widget or any of the hundreds of alternative similar plugins (assuming I'm understanding your requirements correctly)

No, I use that, but the recent posts only pulls in the titles of the most recent posts, say 5 in my case.
I want to pull in the beginning content of 1 post in particular to basically 'highlight' it in my sidebar.
Thank you so much for the reply and allowing me to clarify.

In that case, there are hundreds of other recent post plugins that show an excerpt of the post.

See WordPress › Recent Posts Widget Extended « WordPress Plugins for an example.
