When I look at scared over piece of burly wood I can't help but think of all the struggle involved in it's growth. Yet it continues on, and there's a certain beauty and strength that is unique to itself. The idea here with this man, crooked and imperfect is the same. He may not be perfect but he's strong and proud and has continued to grow threw every adversity.
