Anyone who tells you the life of a lawyer isn't glamorous has never stayed at the Home2 Suites by Hilton in Batesville, Mississippi on a Wednesday night
At times, the joy that life attacks me with is unbearable and leads to gasping hysterical laughter. I find myself completely out of control and wonder how could life could surprise me again and again and again, so completely. How could a man be a cynic? It is a sin.
Twenty-five years on, Tim Russert’s tribute to Father Mychal Judge on Meet the Press still moves me.
The FDNY chaplain died on 9/11 while ministering to others. Take a moment this Sunday to remember him.

Talarico: My faith is central in my public service, and if you go back and read the New Testament, even if you’re not a Christian, even if you’re not religious, go back and see what Jesus spends most of his time doing. It’s not preaching, it’s not teaching. It’s healing. It’s healing people.
And that is what we are called to do, whether you’re religious or not, is ensure—ensure that our neighbors have the care that they need. And that is, that is gonna be the end result of this plan and the other health care policies that we’re gonna fight for in Washington: saving the lives of our neighbors, bringing down these costs for all of us so that we can afford to get by in this economy, so we can afford to fulfill our God-given potential.
That is the end goal. That is our North Star.
