I ran into an article this week that contained a powerful quote. In a time when we often seek the praise and approval of the people around us, this phrase has tremendous refocusing power. When we are seeking our value and purpose in what others say or believe about us, it helps to redirect our priorities. When everyone else seems to have their own purpose for our lives, this phrase brings clarity to life. It says:
"It matters not if the world has heard(BJ Hoff)
Or approves or understands ….
The only applause we're meant to seek
Is that of nail-scarred hands."
