We live in a funny time. If you don't go corporate, you can't compete. You're relegated as irrelevant. People used to admire that. ↗

My grandmother had great influence on me. She was secretary of state in the 1970's, and that's when I was born. She showed me the importance of public service, and she was admired by people regardless of their political party. ↗
