The words, the sentiments expressed in Senator McCain’s memorial service may be somewhat grandiose at times, but i don’t feel played. I’d prefer to be inspired, I’d rather be moved to better thoughts, considerations and ideals than not.
I never met the senator but today feel touched by him. He reminded me, through the testimony of others, what I’ve long tried and so often failed to accomplish. To be reminded by one example, provided by one high-profile man, that it is possible to fall but still continue on. And be remembered well.
