Power and Responsibility
"With great power comes great responsibility." Ben Parker (Spider-Man's Uncle).
Most people would think that power means political power, immense wealth, wide influence or extraordinary intelligence; the truth can't be further. I prefer to define power as the ability to do good.
And all of us possess such power given our vast repertoire of abilities and talents. We can motivate with our rousing speeches, inspire with our self-sacrificing actions, give hope with our pats on the shoulder, brighten someone's day with our smiles, counsel with our listening ears, love with all our hearts, etc. The list goes on and on!
With such great power, let's never forget that we all have the great responsibility of using it to make this world a better place for all.
