Tonight I visited a funeral home to pay respect to my best friend’s dad who passed away Saturday night following a rollercoaster battle for his health.
Unfortunately I didn’t know the man very well. But he held himself as a modest man with simple tastes. A family man; the kind of man you don’t see much of anymore.
And although Albert Sr. lived simply, he did not simply live. He helped bring three children into the world and raised them as best he could – which is more than I can say for half of the “baby daddies” out there today.
We can learn a lot from Al Sr. Sometimes being “an ordinary man” makes one extraordinary difference.

Never has so much been said so simply, yet elegantly. There is much to be said about the joys of living simply, without all the frills and unnecessary BS that so many people equate with success of the "good life" nowadays.
