The Quiet Heroes

7 Comments

My Rebecca and I spend a little precious time together catching up on some of the old PBS series on Television. We got through all the Foyle’s War and all the Father Brown ones. And now we are into the first season of Call the Midwife.

A pic that just came in from Annie in California.

All three of those have inspired me and taught me about life. There is something about the quiet hero that seems an excellent role model for us in life here and now. And I mean that for the male and female of us as I think the word heroine is out these days.

Of course, a lot of heroes are unwilling heroes. But maybe there comes a time when it becomes a sort of second nature to act that way, that quiet way. Maybe it becomes easier to do with more practice, more moves, more vocabulary.

Well it seems to be a shortie today. Thanks for stopping by. Our walk is in a few minutes and time for me to gear up.
Love, Felipé.x

  1. Hola, Felipe!
    As if we needed any more “proof” that you two and we two would get along, we have this: Those are some of our favorite PBS series also! You’ve obviously caught that Fr Brown was a combat vet from WW1 and his “lessons learned” there greatly affect his attitude and empathy for others. We do joke a little, however, that the sweet looking, bucolic village experiences a murder every week! 🙁 I can also highly recommend “A Place to Call Home”, though it’s a lot heavier with heartache.

    Christmas cometh soon!

    1. Juan ~ all great winter time fare. And thanks for the tip. Yea, I haven’t done one thing about Christmas. Trying to rise above the panic. Felipé.

  2. I have to find those shows you and PFJ endorse. One note: the pic is from NY. The temperature is hovering around 32 degrees and rain is expected. I’m still hoping for a white christmas, but will take whatever presents itself. Being with good people = priceless. Much love to you Felipe, and Caminoheads everywhere!

    1. Annie ~ OK thanks for the clarification on the pic. It’s a keeper. we are in the middle of a wind storm here. Things supposed to taper off in a couple of hours. Always something. Felipé.x

  3. Phil, you are my hero along with, of course, that other jolly marine we both know and love. Keep on keepin’ on! SF

    1. Ken ~ well we do what we can with what we got! Looking forward to seeing your jolly band in May. Thanks for following along with us here at Caminoheads. Hello to Tori. Felipé.
