Today I am not going to try and excel. I don’t normally, I don’t think, but today I am going to try to find my middle. Healthy excellence comes from the middle, eventually. This I believe.
I also believe many of our heroes are compulsive, and not in control of their own lives. To be human is precisely to differ from a machine. We were not meant to be great, but to be healthy and happy. Greatness may from time to time be needed, but should never be sought.
These are my words, for this moment, on this day.
