There is good news out there…

Well…I know I’ve been a little off this week with all that has been going on in my life which put the normal bitching about politics that I do in perspective…..but, after I get the car tomorrow and my life finally gets back to normal, I promise I’ll try to get back to my normal semi-lucid posts that I hope adds to the discourse. But, what I wanted to comment on right now is a neat little story that happened at a track meet in Walled Lake where a senior from one school, Walled Lake Lakeland, sacrificed winning the 3,200 meters to help a sophomore from Walled Lake Northern win the race and set his personal best time. And, this act was not planned, while in the race, this nice young man Garrett Zuk heard that Devin Kimberlain, the sophomore, was trying to run a personal best in the race, so he found him, basically said, “come with me, let’s go” and paced him to make sure that he did it….even slowing at the end to make sure that Devin won the race. Now, before you say he should haven’t thrown the race just for the youngster’s personal gain, let’s just say that the meet was already won by Lakeland so the only meaning for the race was the personal best time. It gives me hope when I hear these types of actions by youngsters…..good job young men!
