The Measure of a Man

Yes, I thought of a country song relating to this.

2 Christmases ago, I remember being at a party at my brother's and seeing a friend of his, who is a big strong military kind of guy, go up to another mutual friend, M, and walk right up and say "I'm sorry for your loss." I was impressed then, but even more so now, I understand even better now how these men get it. They get it. It's hard on everyone to lose a baby, dads too. Very simple, and they didn't want to make a big deal out of it, but just to share something about it quickly.

Now that's a man.
