Rose.
I agree, she mirrors my own thoughts.

Thanks for your previous link.

I can't get this part of the article out of my mind:

This is from the postcard Robert sent to his mom, Zofia:

"Ludzie staja sie dobrzy poprzez praktykowanie dobroci, rzadko sie zdarza czlowiek dobry z natury. Dobroc istnieje wcale nie po to by z niej korzystac. Dobroc nie moze wyplywac ze slabosci tylko z potegi." Gliwice, 26/07/2006 Translation of Robert's notes to his mom:

"People become good by doing good; it is rare that a person is good by nature alone.

Goodness does not exist so one can make use of it. Goodness does not flow from a place of weakness but one of power."

This person is exactly the type we need more of in this country. Not many mothers get such correspondence from their sons, can you imagine her pride in him?

I feel like I lost a great friend, yet I never met him. My loss. Our loss.
