[warning: you will be upset if you watch the following link. ]

i was tired and frustrated when i came home from a long week of working extra hours.

then i watched this.

it shook me to my core, and made me realize what in my life was important.

i share it only because it made me realize what in my life was beautiful and relevant.

Saw that on ESPN the other day. Sad that it so often requires someone else's misfortune to get us to understand how fortunate we are.
