COMPASSION

Affirmation of life is the spiritual act by which man ceases to live thoughtlessly and begins to devote himself to his life
with reverence in order to give it true value.

"I bumped into sportscasting legend Nick Charles on Saturday in Atlantic City Boardwalk Hall, where he was calling his final fight, Miguel "Mikey" Garcia's 10th-round stoppage of Matt Remillard, for HBO." 
"Charles has stage 4 bladder cancer and has, at best, a few weeks to live, but he was as upbeat as ever. What a class act, and a study in courage."

Upbeat as ever with 4 weeks to live??? This is a strange thing to say or witness. How do you behave in an upbeat way when the show is over as far as a your life is concerned?


This is a strange quote from Bernard Fernandez
