Last night I finished reading The Greatest Generation by Tom Brokaw. The book told the stories of many individuals who served in World War II or whose lives were otherwise influenced by it. The themes that stood out most to me were those of hard-work, responsibility, courage, and marital commitment.
I worry that I do not live up to the high standards they set. I don't know if I could rise to the occasion and bravely meet the challenges that they did. I hope I could. I hope my children could. I suppose I'll never know for sure. But I do feel inspired to improve myself in each of those four areas so that I can reach a higher standard.
