“You loved witnessing excellence.
It's why you loved sports so much. You loved watching the best of the best perform at the level of greatness God intended for them.
When we first started dating, we went to the basketball court to shoot around. I loved seeing you in that element because time was irrelevant. It was just us, the sound of sneakers squeaking and jump shots. We bonded over how Jordan was the GOAT and you told me about your basketball days in high school and I told you about my basketball days in college. Just two athletes escaping the demands of the world for a minute.
I remember seeing on your wrist a red bracelet. You never took it off, it said "work harder, be better." And everyday you did just that. Years later, one day after an event on campus a student asked you about your bracelet, and you gave it to them. I have no idea who that student was or where they are today, but l have no doubt they're working harder and being better, because you set the tone.
This is one of the last photos taken of you before you were murdered. I look at it and can't help but see excellence. You're in your element. You're in athlete mode. Training for this exact moment, mind, body, and soul. To me, this is your "Jordan" photo. Permanently etched in time, held in my heart, as I admire your greatness. Forever.
I pray you've had the most amazing week in Heaven @charliekirk11 I love you.”
RIP Charlie Kirk. It doesn’t matter what your opinion is of Charlie or his politics if you don’t view this as one of the darkest days in American history than you are part of the problem.
