Those bloody essays are just a figment of the past and I will never revisit them again.<br /><br />I just watched We Are Marshall for the second time after a few years, and realized this viewing is much more emotionally charged than the first viewing.

I will enumerate the emotions and feelings below.<br /><br />Loss: The loss of friends, teammates, family members, and loss of confidence.<br /><br />Courage: The courage to take a chance and start all over when the world is against you.<br /><br />Regrets: Regretting you survived and regretting you have not done enough.<br /><br />Forgiveness: Forgiving folks who have guilt for surviving and forgiving those who you squeezed everything out of them, who could do no more.<br /><br />Winning Spirit: You need a don&#39;t quit attitude, a sense of risk, hope, and a winning spirit in dire circumstances. <br /><br />Rebirth: When something catastrophic occurs, you need to start anew, get a second chance and dream of what can be. <br /><br />Broken: Some people will remain broken to a degree. <br /><br /><br />Have a fantastic evening!

So many great messages of what leadership is all about through loss and challenges! That&#39;s my take on the movie. I&#39;ll watch it again now! Thanks Response by COL Mikel J.

Great movie. And great performance by Matthew McConaughey.
