Nobby's Wisdom
I'm coming out of Case Blog hiatus just to give a deserved citizen some credit for his wise words. I really enjoyed Nobby's comments linked to in today's Case Daily. I find them especially meaningful in the light of recent news over Imus and Virginia Tech. Here is what I appreciated:
"They confused an ability to speak fluently with an ability to communicate," he said. "I look at it as a challenge I had as a child. Back in grade school, anyone that was different in any way was made fun of by his peers. All I ever knew how to do was to take what God had given me, utilize my strengths, and minimize my weaknesses. Some kids made fun of me, but I learned to live with the insults which gave me added incentive to succeed."
Nobby, that's excellent insight that I hope to teach any potential children I may have someday. Congratulations on the ballpark.
