Charles The Greatest

The greatest man I’ve known in my life so far (still) is Charles Conlee. He had very little by most measures yet he had everything of himself to give always. He just showed up all the time, yet his timing was always just perfect somehow. He was a little flawed (like we all are) yet he seemed to love me and everyone else pretty flawlessly. He lived and he died. His memory is deeply branded on my heart because of who he was and how he loved me.

So, what makes a man great? What makes a woman great?

What will make you great?

How are you measuring that on a daily basis?

• Is it based on how smart you are?

• how skinny you are?

• how fast you are?

• Is it based on your success in the world so far?

• how far you hit the ball?

• how much cleaner your house is?

• how good that grass looks?

None of that matters.

Be like Charles. He was kinda sorta just like Him.
