One thing we need more of in our communities is forgiveness. We need to learn how to forgive and understand even when someone may have wronged us, or the world thinks they have; you have to be able to know it is not your place for vengeance.
Look at the parents of Damar Hamlin. When evil-spirited individuals who don’t understand football chose to blame Tee Higgins for their son’s injury, even up to death threats, The Hamlins decided not to join the blame game and point fingers at Higgins. They came to his rescue. They told the world that he was not the blame. Despite his involvement in the play nearly taking their son’s life, they did not blame him.
This took a lot for them to do at that moment. We need more of this in our day-to-day dealings. We are glad to see Demar Hamlin progressing, but we are also happy to see his family stand up for Tee Higgins at a low point for them. It shows exactly where he got the character everyone says he has.
Thank you, Hamlins.
