Dear Ndugu,
:51:18
- you'll be glad to know that Jeannie's
wedding came off without a hitch.
:51:24
Right now, she and Randall are on
their way to sunny Orlando, -
:51:28
- on my nickle, of course.
:51:30
As for me,
I'm headed back to Omaha.
:51:34
I'm driving straight through this time,
and I've made only one stop.
:51:38
The impressive new archer over the
interstate in Corney, Nebraska.
:51:44
An arch that commemorates
the courage and determination of -
:51:48
- the pionneers who cross the state
on their way west.
:51:54
You've really got to see
it to believe it.
:51:58
And it... kind of got me thinking, -
:52:01
- looking at all that history and,
reflecting on the achievement -
:52:05
- of people long ago kind of...
:52:07
put things into perspective
:52:11
My trip to Denver, for instance is
so insignificant compared to -
:52:15
- the journeys that others
have taken, -
:52:18
- the bravery that
they have shown, -
:52:21
- the hardships they've endured.
:52:27
I know we are all pretty small in
the big scheme of things.
:52:31
And I supposed the most you
can hope for -
:52:33
- is to make some kind
of difference.
:52:37
What... what kind of difference
have I made ?
:52:40
What in the world is better
because of me ?
:52:45
When I was out in Denver,
I tried to do the right thing, -
:52:48
- tried to convince Jeannie,
she was...
:52:50
making a big mistake but...
:52:53
I failed.
:52:58
Now she is married to that ??(demeuré)
and there is nothing I can do about it.
