Friday Inspirations, Episode 6 :)
Happy Friday, Generous Changer!!
Finding inspiration absolutely everywhere this week. Lots and lots of it! (Read to the end for links to cool tools!)
Quote we're loving:
"Be yourself. Everyone else is already taken." - Oscar Wilde
We're reading: Bill and Melinda Gates' Annual Letter 2018. (There's a teaser version on LinkedIn, where I first saw it.) I am pretty fan-girly about these two - they take their philanthropy very seriously. But my favorite part of this letter is the personal bit at the end:
"Maybe 20 years ago, we could have made a different choice about what to do with our wealth. But now it’s impossible to imagine. If we’d decided to live a different life then, we wouldn’t be us now. This is who we chose to be."
A great reminder that giving means a lot to generous people - it can be deeply defining. Which makes our role as connectors to causes honorable, enviable, lucky.
We're viewing: the Picasso show at the Nelson-Atkins...
