Somehow, I think it important to highlight that Jen is a woman and a mother… I learn so much from women and mothers… and their unique understanding of empathy and courage are highlighted in your story, and routinely I am reminded that women are the best of our humanity… no matter how many fools they suffer ;)

Hot take: Jimmy Buffet is a great storyteller / songwriter and doesn’t get enough respect! Wish I’d seen him live 🙁

I’m a little sad that no other parrot heads stopped to help that man but good for your wife!

"have kept on walking. Not my problem. But my wife has a big heart and suffers fools gladly – our marriage is proof."

HAHAHAHA damn that's funny, and ditto for my wife and I. However, since I was a first responder in the past, I have this uncanny desire to run towards danger or people in distress, sometimes though I can tell which situation to avoid. Great post!
