More on decency


We give awards for all kinds of achievements in athletics, entertainment, public service and science. These are generally given for excellence in an activity and the effort that brings that excellence.

But what about the individuals who live a life of quiet integrity, courage and compassion? The individuals who choose right, even when it’s not easy? The individuals who instinctively treat others with dignity? These are the decent human beings of the world, and I believe there are many of them.

They would never expect to get an award, but truly deserve one. If you know one of these people, remind them of their worth.
