I am humbled

i saw this story on CNN today about a Korean man who lost his entire family when a military jet plane crashed into his home. He was visibly grieving but still had the strength and character to say that he wished the pilot that ejected safely from the plane no ill will and called the marine "a treasure for our country". His selflessness and ability to put someone else before his own grief truly inspires me.

Here's a link to the story if you are unfamiliar with it as well as a bit of the surviving father's message to the pilot.
