Not everything

Not everything needs to be a crisis, for it to trigger action.
Not everything needs speed, to have value.
Not everything needs you, for it to be important.

Your excuse about who you are, as a reason not to improve and choose a different path, is lazy, evil and weak.
You are only still relevant because of assigned authority. When that is taken away, you will see more clearly, but your sight will only show you what is out of reach.
You are not a leader to blossom under, for it is limiting to pick up or support your way.

May we never require a life-threatening event to value what is important in life.
May we never be blind to or out of touch with the beauty in humanity.
May we never become what we despise.
