This One's For You, Dad

As I was walking in the marketplace of downtown Liestal, I came across a Salvation Army booth. There was a brass quartet playing. It made me think of my dad and my grandparents. My grandparents were apart of the Salvation Army for over 20 years. Shortly after my father was born in England, the family moved to South Africa and served in the community there by feeding the hungry, helping the poor and so much more.
As I stood there watching and listening, I felt so proud. Proud to have that be apart of my family's heritage and legacy. Proud of my own parents contribution and their parents contribution to this world.
So, this video clip is dedicated to them.
May we all learn to live our lives in ways that are greater than ourselves.
