I heard this once and wrote it down.
It's worth repeating....
Sincerely,
Candice Abellon (not the author of the proceeding:)
If you want to be important
wonderful. If you want to be recognized
wonderful! If you want to be great, wonderful!
but recognize
that he who is greatest among you, shall be your servent.
That's a new definition of greatness. And this morning the thing that I like about it: by giving that definition of greatness it means everybody can be great! because everyobdy can serve.
You don't have to have a college degree to serve. you don't have to make your subject and your verb agree to serve! you don't have to know about plato and aristotle to serve. You don't have to know einsteins theory of relativity to serve. You don't have to know the second theory of thermodynamics in physics to serve. You only need
a heart full of grace. a soul generated by love. and you can be that servant.
-Martin Luther King Jr.
