Jack’s Winning Words 3/5/21

“A proud person is actually an ignorant person.  He didn’t know that he was just a drop in the ocean.”   (Lei Feng)  Lei Feng Day is a BIG occasion among Chinese people, honoring a young soldier known for his selfless life giving food to orphans; giving rides to older people).  On “His Day” people do acts similar to his.  They clean up parks, give food to the hungry, act as perfect, caring people.  If you are seeing someone as a role model for the good, who might that be?  ;-)  Jack

FROM WILLMAR REV:  Kerplunk!!===JACK:  You, BIG Rev are more than a drop.  Willmar should really have a day in your honor.

FROM FACEBOOK LIZ:  ... and live under communist fear and control. ===JACK  There are some good people living in communist countries.  Lei Feng, evidently, was one of them.  But, there certainly are more.

FROM THE SHARK: You, Jack, without a doubt.===JACK:  Surely there must be others.  How about the Pope in Iraq?===SHARK:  I love this Pope, didn’t care for the one before him. ===JACK: I love this Pope, didn’t care for the one before him. 

FROM RS IN TEXAS:  Mother Theresa===JACK:  She's a good choice.  The Catholics have even made her a saint.

FROM HOMELESS:  You.===jACK:  Thanks...but put on your thinking cap, but certainly you can choose someone better.

FROM ME IN NEWPORT BEACH:  Understand the point but I do not agree completely.  I like feeling proud and telling people when I am proud of them. ===JACK:  I suppose that something is lost in the translation.  Feng was Chinese, and there are difficulties in explaining things in one language and try to make it mean the same thing in another.  There's noithing wrong with being proud of your accomplishments.
