The Invictus Games, if you aren’t familiar, are an International Paralympic-style multi-sport event, created by Britain’s Prince Harry, in which wounded or injured armed services personnel and their associated veterans compete. The above images and text do way more justice than my feeble description.
During one of the broadcasts, ESPN’s Tom Rinaldi did a report where he said the following:
“To survive the darkest moment there must be
a holiness in the spirit
and a divinity in the strength.”
a holiness in the spirit
and a divinity in the strength.”
I hope that in my darkest moment, which was both literal and figurative, I had a mere speck of either. And I am so thankful that the brave men and women who serve this wonderful country of ours have huge amounts of both.
