I remember, as a limo driver in between jobs, driving a very wealthy and influential man to his appointment with a senior from North Carolina. The man asked me, among other things, about my background. When I told him that I earned my Bachelors and Masters degrees in music, he very bluntly told me that he considered such endeavors as a waste of time. (I guess he had a point, I was hired as his driver after all.) <br />His comment, however, made me think of him with pity. That man knew only business, power, and money as a means of obtaining the things he valued; money, power, control... <br />I guess it all depends on your values. <br />I'm glad that the two men, in the end, valued the same things.Dr_Georgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10753409605049857598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6745409605496062834.post-5647812670603888962010-09-02T06:39:54.170-04:002010-09-02T06:39:54.170-04:00Oh so beautiful.
