After LEARNING how debilitating a little "bug" can be to my productivity, I've decided to recover from the flu by procrastinating some more. More movies and air-conditioning.
Tonight on the Netflix: First Knight. I'm such a nerd for these kinds of movies. Of course, we've come so far from the days of feudal lords, but one quotation really stuck out to me: "In serving each other, we become free."
I'VE LEARNED that chivalry isn't dead. In the media, we see examples of shameless self-promotion and greed. But in my day-to-day life, I've met so many people who are serving others. Its these selfless, engaged and compassionate individuals who inspire me to continue trying to make a difference. Its comforting to know that an idea so medieval (though, no doubt a modern idea plugged in to the legend) as this still has relevance in a seemingly disconnected world.
