    Sad.

    The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

        I had a good friend who had that. It is a difficult way to go. And equally traumatic for the caregiver(s) left behind. 😢

              Great note. I am reminded why I have respect and even envy for genuine Christian belief.

              Education is extremely important.

                Very nice note. I’d hope to have similar strength and humor and honesty if put in a similar situation.

                  @Horace said in Former Senator Ben Sasse:

                  I understand that completely. I often wish I had a stronger faith. I do not disavow the spiritual, nor assert that we are all there is. I just find it hard to adhere to what someone else tells me it is.

                    A life well lived. Like him or not he was there to do his best for what he believed in and he did just that. God bless him.
