Curiosity About the Fat Lady

“Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never — in nothing, great or small, large or petty — never give in, except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force. Never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.”

— Winston Churchill

No Headline Could Suffice

I made a decision some time ago that Loving Jacqui would not be about politics.

And it still isn’t. I guess it’s about two people, how we feel about others, and sometimes on blessed days how others feel about us and what our goal is: To love each other this entire life and beyond.

It’s a hefty goal and neither of us is perfect.

Some people are pretty close though, or at their maximum, their beauty and nobility is so perfect that it shines through their lesser nature in a white light of goodness that a man of the cloth might be able to describe, maybe, but that I fall well short.

Here is a man doing something that I deeply admire. I don’t match it. I merely admire him for his clarity, his courage, and his love.

Unfortunately, he died while doing it. Here is his mom describing him and what he did with his life.

I don’t consider this to be about politics so much, as about people. A family with a mom (and dad) who loves and supports her son so much that she supported his work and his values and not just the continuity of his flesh. And how painful this must be for her.

It could have been a policeman or a fireman or even a stranger out for a walk. But in this case it wasn’t. It was a Canadian soldier.
