Each of us has a spark of life inside us,
and our highest endeavor ought to be
to set off that spark in one another.

We could bring out the best in each other, but all too often we don’t because we’re insecure about our own ‘best’. A person secure within him or herself has no need to show off, no need to put others down to make themselves look better.
That’s a lesson my Dad taught me years ago when we used to play fairly competitive table tennis. I was good, but Dad was better, yet in front of others he never unleashed his full power against my game. He wanted /me/ to look ‘good’. I’ve never forgotten that. 🙂

I never met my dad, but I know I would have learned a lot from him…

I like to think he would have been a good dad, if the war hadn’t taken him…
