A young father and his small child remind me how to be brave

I felt compelled to share something that moved me last night and again today. I think this conversation between a father and his son speaks profound wisdom for those willing to take a breath and think about what was said. I hope my sharing this doesn't open up a toxic discussion on world politics. If this middle aged warrior can set aside his cynicism for a brief moment to soak in the beauty of this child and his father, I challenge you to do the same.

I know the subject matter doesn't directly relate to BMW motorcycles, but there was a thread started by a concerned member regarding traveles in Europe and I thought maybe this video may help ones perspective on that and other issues.
 
Saw that on the news as well.
Innocent child trying to grasp what was happening...moving for sure.
 
I really like how the father in the face of tragedy makes being a good, kind, loving, father look natural. Probably because, for him it is. I want to be more like him.

+1 and many of us are getting a second chance to do so with our grandchildren. :)
