My hat is off to you

Today one of my best friends and literally also one of the best if not the best person I have ever known is doing something so tremendously courageous I don't have the words to describe it. I'm as so proud to just know him and be counted among his friends. He is and should be one of the people who inspires me to do great things. (So good luck to you out there!)

Thank God for people who still love with both their hearts and their guts. Thank God for people who take risks and walk to the edge of defeat because they are not satisfied to let something that could be great pass. He is, in a sense my own personal Atticus Finch, fighting what could be a losing battle becuase it is absolutely what he feels should be done.

Just the fact that he is doing this thing makes even my removed world better, and even if it didn't I'd still be behind him.
