True success lies in knowing we didn’t reach our destination strictly based on our own merits

Happy soaring Saturday. Our positive quote of the day states: “None of us got where we are solely by pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps. We got here because somebody – a parent, a teacher, an Ivy League crony or a few nuns – bent down and helped us pick up our boots,” by Thurgood Marshall. True success lies in knowing we didn’t reach our destination strictly based on our own merits. We arrived because of the prayers, encouraging words, helping hands and advocacy of others. And it’s up to us to pay it forward to the next generation. #Beinspired #PayItForward #LuminousQuotes
