“Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.”
– Theodore Roosevelt
This week, the phrase “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are” was enacted by at least two as-yet-unnamed heroes, the motorcyclist who died while trying to stop the barreling lorry at Nice’s tragic Bastille Day festivities and a second person—perhaps inspired by the first—who hurled himself into the truck’s cab and wrestled with the gun-firing driver until the truck stopped. Police sources confirmed that the tragedy would’ve lasted longer had it not been for the man’s courage.
Write about whom you’re grateful for—someone you know or someone you don’t. Who has taken action that has made a difference?
