Self Assembly?

"There is no such thing as a 'self-made' man. We are made up of thousands of others. Everyone who has ever done a kind deed for us, or spoken one word of encouragement to us, has entered into the make-up of our character and of our thoughts, as well as our success."

--George Matthew Adams


Thanks for this Rick!

    For some odd reason, we as humans think we can assembly our selves when as cleverly noted by Mr. Adams, we are simply the culmination of other people. You are not you, but you are them! never forget that!

    Lest we not forget those who utter those simple phrases of 'look the other way', forget about them, it's us' that truly paints the picture of who we have the unfortunate potential to be. Reality is, we must balance the good with the not so good to determine who we are and where we land....a path to be carefully navigated.
