Phenomenal U.S. funnyman, Tracy Morgan, finally broke his silence after a horror crash that left him severely injured and took the life of his friend and coach, James McNair – fondly known as Jimmy Mac. Tracy Morgan, the star of the hit series “30 Rock”, was extremely emotional when he appeared, cane in hand, on NBC’s Today show – his first major interview since the accident happened.
Morgan’s interview with Today‘s Matt Lauer was wide-ranging and dealt with issues from his experience of the accident, the aftermath as well as his emotional journey since then, including the overwhelming sense of disbelief and pain at the loss of Jimmy Mac. Here’s the emotional interview, courtesy of Today.
Morgan’s words are full of such power that they are worth quoting here: “I love comedy. I’ll never stop loving her. I love comedy and I can’t wait to get back to her, but right now my goal is just to heal and get better because I’m not 100 percent yet, I’m not,” he said. “And when I’m there, you’ll know it. I’ll get back to making you laugh. I promise you.”
We all suffer setbacks of one sort or another in our lives. Sometimes they come and go in a day, like a disagreement with a loved one, but sometimes they can be entire seasons of our lives. Consider Tracy’s story. He may have traveled part of the way to his recovery but he still has some healing to do. That is the story of many of us sometimes. At times, during that journey, we doubt ourselves and don’t feel we can make it on our own. That is when faith and the support of loved ones can see us through.
