I recently reread Michael J. Fox’s Lucky Man, which reminded me of my love for ol’ Michael J. and helped me rediscover my love for this quote. I thought it was appropriate in light of the new chapter in my life:
“This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.” – George Bernard Shaw
Here’s to hoping I can keep this in mind once the real work starts ;).
