Popular Post Antonio Burrell Posted April 26, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted April 26, 2013 Many times we sit down and reflect on people, places or moments that have made us who we are. The substance of our beings come from these people or places, we embody their ideas, their essence permeates us in one way or another. In the best of us, we are able to see something worth knowing. We are drawn to good people because of what they encompass, we want to have that sense of calm or that unerring ability to do the right thing. In some cases, in the best cases I would say, we are drawn together by love. We spend so much time rushing from place to place, from item to item that we forget that love might be the best quality of all. To find motivation in love, to find a sense of purpose in all this darkness, to find peace is what we all search for. I always saw peace in my Grandaddy's eyes. A knowledge and a serenity gained through seeing the worst in the world and the best. Today I tip my hat and make a toast to my Grandfather, Luther Burrell. In all I do, may I pass on a glimpse of what I saw in you. I love you Granddaddy. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonRocks Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 And may his rock-steady love always guide you throughout your life, Antonio. Although I've never met Luther, I've already developed a lifetime of respect for this great, wise, man who (I guarantee) "knew" things that very few other people know, and these aren't the types of things you glean from a textbook. #MaximumRespect to your grandfather, my friend. I hope my life is half as successful as his was, as judged by his grandson's love of him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
