I’ve been impressed by many men in my life.  Apart from my own Dad who was such a strong compass through my teen years and my sounding board through much of my adult life there have been others who I have often sought advice or at least acting as a sounding board for me.

I see in these men integrity, wisdom and purpose.  Most men want their lives to be successful and most men value their ability to provide for their family while finding recognition within their field of work.

But when I first saw this video I was struck by how much this man, Dr. Robert McQuilken was able to articulate what was really important in his life.  Coming into the Mother’s Day weekend this seems so appropriate.

For my own reflection on my own marriage to Wendy and perhaps for you too, it will  be a good reminder of what is really important and that while we enjoy good health now this will not always be.
