And the humming bird story told by Brian was so surreal. It gave me the chill. My eyes were watered.
Several days before the memorial, I was walking outside with some bags. And there was a hummingbird. It was white with black spots on it. I’ve never seen a hummingbird like this in my entire life. It flew over to me, right in my face. I set the bags down and put my hand out. It came and landed in my hand. It sat there for about 5 seconds and then flew off again. It didn’t register with me when it happened. But when I was sitting at the memorial and Don Scott said Doug always wanted to come back as a hummingbird, my heart just dropped. I started crying.
Doug is such a genuine kind person. I’m really inspired by the principles he lived by. The first 2 principles fit me like a glove. Surely I’ll keep it in my heart wherever I go.
Brian is the southern guy who self-claims to have the hands of Michelangelo by the way. Both Brian and Doug are from a reality show called “Work Out”.
