Lessons I Live By 5
The older I get the more I want to keep things focused on what really matters. This fall I am sharing some of the lessons I have learned that help me do that. My hope is that my reflections will encourage you to think about the lessons that matter most to you. Choose to live those lessons and share them with those who look to you for encouragement and inspiration.
The fifth lesson I’ve learned is that the playing field is not level. Though our nation is founded on liberty and justice for all, there is plenty of work to do to make that aspiration true. I am finding purpose in my latter years in doing this work. I enjoy mentoring and encouraging younger people, I am learning more about the injustice that withholds equal opportunity, I am making a point to make room at the table for those who are on the outside looking in, and I am voting and advocating with that value in mind.
What lesson have you learned about how the world works that is inspiring you to think beyond your own interests?
Yours in Christ,
Marc
