...whom Costello befriended during his time in Kabul. After the boy’s father died suddenly, Masood was left as the head of his family. The song’s lyrics, such as “I lied awake thinking of the hope that’s laid on me,” perfectly lay out the heartbreaking reality of this story and the situation in Afghanistan.

The big stage of presidential politics, which for obvious reasons is covered by the press, is where a lot of it is laid out. But that is not what gets me up in the morning. It is the important intimate encounters with people who thank me for helping their children get health care or people who grab my hand and say, "Please bring my son home from Iraq" or ask me to help...
