My friend John said something the other day that seems to have struck a chord.
He said, “How far you go in life will depend on your willingness to love other people by being
- tender to the young,
- compassionate to the aged,
- sympathetic to the poor, and
- tolerant of the weak
because at some point in your life, you’re going to be all four.”
Yup. But, it’s the “love other people” that we (I) seem to struggle with the most. Pity.
