Arianna Huffington Quotes
It Is Very Telling What We Don't Hear In Eulogies. We Almost Never Hear Things Like: "The Crowning Achievement Of His Life Was When He Made Senior Vice President." Or: "He Increased Market Share For His Company Multiple Times During His Tenure." Or: "She Never Stopped Working. She Ate Lunch At Her Desk. Every Day." Or: "He Never Made It To His Kid's Little League Games Because He Always Had To Go Over Those Figures One More Time." Or: "While She Didn't Have Any Real Friends, She Had Six Hundred Facebook Friends, And She Dealt With Every Email In Her In-box Every Night." Or: "His PowerPoint Slides Were Always Meticulously Prepared." Our Eulogies Are Always About The Other Stuff: What We Gave, How We Connected, How Much We Meant To Our Family And Friends, Small Kindnesses, Lifelong Passions, And The Things That Made Us Laugh.
