8 Words

It seems that I have been affected in a unique way by the passing of Tim Russert.
I'm not sure what it was....but it really hit me hard. I'm not sure what it was, but there were so many things about him. He was an inspiration to so many, he was a voice in politics, a faithful father and son, and a good person. It doesn't seem that the world has too many of these around, or else sometimes they seem hard to find.

My heart was sad for his family, for their loss, but I know that he has touched many lives.

I watched the Meet The Press special on Sunday morning with my dad, and by the end we were both in tears. I'm glad I had that time with my dad...to honor my father by being with him, by listening about Tim's legacy, and thinking about how we all affect each other.

I loved hearing his stories and the memories of Tim....but the words that resound in my heart today......and that I think we should all follow:


WORK HARD, LAUGH OFTEN, AND KEEP YOUR HONOR!
