Are You "Superior to Circumstance?"

“Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside of them was superior to circumstance.”

Bruce Barton

Regular readers know this is a repeating theme of these offerings—our human ability to triumph over circumstance.

We’ve just experienced the 29th running (and swimming and jumping and rowing and diving and...) of the modern Olympic Games. Beyond that here in the USA we’ve had credible female and black American candidates for our highest political office.

Examples abound: an extraordinary life can be launched by simply believing that we are “superior to circumstance.”

With love and respect,

Robert
