this just moved me to tears. especially the first boy and the volleyball girl part.
my heart just sank when I saw the way the boy ran and cried.
must have been hard on him.

This made me think a lot about fathers.
The special place they have in their children's hearts.
I guess many of us don't treasure our fathers as much as those whose dads faced risk daily.

Maybe that's why God placed difficulties in our lives.
Maybe that's why things are so difficult.
Treasures are realised for what they are through tears.
