To Be Great...
You don't have to be a great artist
a great politician, a great philosopher
historian, athlete, or scientist
in order to be great.
You can be great in your kindness,
and the joy and comfort
you offer others.
You can be great through the way
you raise your child, and through your
love and devotion to your significant other.
You can be great by putting in an honest
day's work, or by the way you've
made a house a home for your family.
You can be great in your desire to overcome
any obstacle in order to make something
out of your life.
You can be great by the way you help
your neighbors.
You can be great in your love for God
and country.
It's not your job, ability, status, or
position in life that makes you great,
but the love, loyalty, and dedication in
your heart. And these are the very qualities
that bind all of humanity to each other and
to God.
