89th birthday of my father . Once asked if he was a “person of faith” he said “I don’t know, but I’m a person of hope.” Meaning? Despite believing in likelihood that humans will destroy themselves he has staked his life on the slim chance of averting that fate.

“It will take a miracle” he says. “But miracles happen. As long as there is life there is hope.” He has shown that hope is an action, way of living as if the impossible—or highly improbable—were possible. Sometimes it begins by speaking the truth. Happy birthday, Dad. love you!
Your tribute to your dad is lovely. Your story is amazing. Have your written a book about his life? Or are u in the process? (My dad and grandfather are my heroes. I am working on a book about my grandfather’s incredible life).
