Extraordinaries

Right now I am not paying any attention to the celebrities with their corona dramas, their agents, their reputation managers and their media advisors. They want to stay in the spotlight to come out of corona still on people’s minds.

My attention is on what I call the ordinary extraordinaries. These are the folks who live seemingly ordinary lives, but when called upon are capable of extraordinary things. They are the ones who are showing courage, generosity and compassion in the dangerous situations they are called to.

Their stories won’t get told like those of privileged entertainers or athletes, but they are on my mind. If you see or know one of these ordinary extraordinaries, thank them…from 6 feet away.
