ReplyDeleteHi Steph! always nice to see you.
DeleteWe are so blessed that his life has been long. We are so blessed to have lived on this earth while he has been here.
ReplyDeleteMs Moon, it amazes me just to think how his life unfolded, simply because he kept taking committed action after committed action, learning from the missteps too.
DeleteAstounding. Just the tiniest thought of that man and all he did and has done is just astounding.
ReplyDeleteelizabeth, i so agree. he used his life, even the part when it seemed he was sitting still in a small cell for more than two decades. he was still developing his heart and mind.
DeleteBeautiful
