I haven’t seen the movie Second Hand Lions… yet. Now that I know it exists, I shall rectify that situation.
Nor did I know the author’s backstory from Wilder, Wealthy, and Wise. He’s got a hell of a story!
The movie and his story give depth to a concept. John fleshes it out beautifully. Well done sir!
He wrote a beacon to all of us. How many of us feel besieged by mediocrities? Does not a society which grows sick on it’s own decay weary the heart? It’s hard to be optimistic. Yet we must! I needed the beacon. I’m happiest when I hear the sound of bravery:
We should share our adventures and inspire others to follow us.
I agree with everything he said. I’m in awe of how well he said it.
Get your ass over to Wilder, Wealthy, and Wise to read the whole thing. You’ll be glad you did.
