How do you do? Common sense for common folk ... but just because you're common doesn't mean you have to be ordinary.

The Rescue of Ingrid Betancourt



Has there ever been a better example of "a picture is worth a thousand words?"

The details of her rescue and the rescue of 14 others is the stuff from which epic films are made and adventure novels are written.


Only this is/was real life with real sorrow and fear and the passing of day after day after year after year with thoughts that had to dance with hopelessness.


But the resolution is evidenced in the picture above.


A classic happy ending.


Breathtaking in its simplicity and magnitude.


Peace and love win!


Hallelujah!
