I found a quote today that I really liked. It was from good ol' Albert Einstein."Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid."
It is important to remember, I think, that everyone is a 'genius' in their own way. For some, it may be that they have exceeding physical prowess--for others, they have great mental capacity or even astounding artistic ability. Too often with people, we just skim the surface and never really look deeper--and in so doing, we never get to appreciate the amazing 'genius' that some people really have. Unfortunately, when we do this we also oftentimes leave people feeling that they're not that great at anything or that they're no good. Don't let the opportunity to get to know someone pass you by.
