Two great Americans, Aretha Franklin and Sen. John McCain, showed the country how we can be.
The virtually simultaneous funerals expressed the kindness, the values, the integrity, the moral compass that America has had, and will have again. To use the phrase so many others said, they were "inspiring."
To me, that inspiration of values and goodness also was refreshing. It was a relief from the struggle for democracy, and re-freshing of the American dream and how it can be restored for the next decade.
