Be Humble, The Rest Will Speak For Itself

In the Gospel of Luke, it says all who exalt themselves will be humbled, but all who humble themselves will be exalted. That is a lesson for everyone, whether they are a believer or not. I think it’s better to be humble and allow your heart and soul to speak for itself, rather than having a fall from grace because you think you are better than anyone else.

We need to see more acts of humility, kindness, service, and love. The culture is feeding on people who brag and think they are better because of wealth, social status, and power. Humility is power if you think about it. Every Easter in many churches, the act of foot washing is an example of what it means to do something good for others.

The Pope is saying there needs to be more acts of service to others. I can dig that. I do my best to be of service. We need more servants because too many people are trying to be in charge. Everyone talks about leadership when we need servanthood. My goal is to be a servant who doesn’t always get it right on the first try. I hope you will adopt that way of living too.

Be humble, it’s a better look for everyone involved.

Quote Of The Day

Leadership is the acceptance of responsibility rather than the assumption of power.

Burgess Battery Company, I Had No Idea This Was A Thing

The Burgess Battery Company (Burgess) was founded by Dr. Charles F. Burgess in Madison, Wisconsin, and incorporated on March 1, 1917. The United States entered World War I a month later on April 6. During the war, Burgess collaborated with the US Army Signal Corps to develop quality batteries for radio communication equipment.

I had no idea this company existed until I saw an ad for it on a fellow member of the larger Burgess family’s Facebook page. It’s cool that this existed. I know my dad would have found this to be really cool. I know I do. The company no longer exists but their legacy lives on.
