I am not sure how many of you listened to Michelle Obama’s speech at last night convention. She was amazing. She was very articulate and very clear on what she wanted to communicate. I don’t think I have ever listened to anything that was so motivating and inspirational. Here is what that stayed with me the most:

“And Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say you’re going to do; that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don’t know them, and even if you don’t agree with them.”

This defines you as a person. What I also liked more was her personality and the path she has chosen to make a difference in her community. She left lucrative jobs and worked in/with her community. This was an eye opener to me. You don’t need lot of money to make a difference in people’s lives. Of course an understanding and supporting partner would definitely help.
