It was some years ago I was coming back from Hong Kong to Los Angeles international airport. It was late at night and while walking down in the underbelly of the airport along a long Corridor, hallway I looked off into the distance and there I saw a man not very tall with a big cowboy hat, cowboy boots and jeans with a big belt buckle. He had his hand on the shoulder of the young man dressed as a US Navy man. As I came closer but still in the distance I could see that clearly this man was Garth Brooks and what he was doing was giving this young man a nice word of encouragement over something he may have been going through. The young Navy man walked away and as I came up to Garth Brooks I smiled and said something to the effect of “that was great” and it led to a very beautiful memory which I will always cherish of my time with Garth Brooks. Do you see that there are people who have achieved great fame and notoriety and yet have not forgotten that they are also human and part of this world in which we are called to be what we can be to each other for good.
