Look, no matter where you live, the biggest defect we human beings have is our shortsightedness. We donโt see what we could be. We should be looking at our potential, stretching ourselves into everything we can become. But if youโre surrounded by people who say โI want mine now,โ you end up with a few people with everything and a military to keep the poor ones from rising up and stealing it.
Mitch AlbomI know I cannot undo this. None of us can undo what weโve done, or relive a life already recorded.
Mitch AlbomThere are many things in my life that I wish I could take back. Many moments I would recast.
Mitch AlbomI used to be a classic workaholic, and after seeing how little work and career really mean when you reach the end of your life, I put a new emphasis on things I believe count more. These things include: family, friends, being part of a community, and appreciating the little joys of the average day.
