Did You Know? 2 Must-See Videos to FLY Together
October 31, 2008 at 1:53 am 4 comments
My dad sent me this great video today. It makes you think. It motivates you, like @garyvee, to get off your butt and get moving. You may think that doing nothing only affects you. Tuning out is a choice. So, that can be your opinion. But, standing, means not helping others to fly.
No matter your political leanings, you must admit this quote is poetic. On NPR, a man talked about getting ready to vote for a president for the first time was being asked who he was voting for and why. He recalled this text message he received from a friend:
“Rosa sat, so Martin could walk. Martin walked, so Obama could run. And, Obama is running so our children can fly.”
What if that could be you? What if your actions could empower others to succeed. Think about the power that ripple effect could have. Whether it’s for Obama or McCain, Vote. Act. Do. No matter what, after the election, we will all need to keep moving, if not faster. Let’s get busy, and let’s FLY together. Just ask these guys:
*Don’t quote me on the stats, as I’m still trying to find this video’s source. But, it is powerful.

@John Apply past lessons to future actions. =) And, the time you commented may differ from the time I have set-up for my blog, as we are probably located in different locales. Thanks for commenting!
