From Howard Thurman:
“It has been aptly said that the time and place of a man’s life is the time and place of his body, but the meaning and significance of a man’s life is as creative, as vast, and as far-reaching as his gifts, his dreams, and his response to his times can make them.”
Which strikes me as a riff from the Jackie Robinson quote, one of my favorites: “A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.” Or maybe Robinson was riffing on Thurman. In any case, let’s not lose the point (or at least one of the points) of each. We each hold the ability to make a difference in some form or fashion.
