Absolutely amazing! Must see!

Ok, I know I usually try to keep my blog posts to things related to Sci-Fi/Fantasy, writing, and things like that...but this story was just so amazing, inspirational, and...well I can't come up with the proper words to describe it. You have to see the video for yourself. It's about a man and his son, Dick and Rick Hoyt, and the real power of love. I'm tearing up again just thinking about it. Please watch the video...
