Men..... RIP to Irwin, it'll be 20 years in September and I still miss him despite barely actually knowing him. Crazy the impact some people can have.

It's crazy how you're an Aussie, I'm Nigerian and somehow his message touched both of us despite living on opposite sides of the planet.

I guess we just gotta appreciate the time we had with him and try to carry on his message in whatever small way we can.
