“102nd story”

A story by Laleh Chini:

Mr. Sodi was a rich man living in a good part of the city. He was in his late 70s.

He lived in a big garden in a very long alley. Everyone knew him in that area.

He was a quiet person. He had someone to get groceries for him and clean the house. The only time he drove his expensive car and got out of the house was when he took his wife to the doctor or to pick up her prescriptions from the local pharmacy.

His wife was very sick and could only walk a few steps to the car or bathroom; she was mostly in bed. One day when he went out with his car to buy his wife’s prescription, on his way in the long alley, a decent middle-aged woman asked for a ride to the main intersection to…

The Man in the Arena -by Theodore Roosevelt

The daily addict

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;

who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again,

because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions;

who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,

and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails whiledaring greatly,

so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

-Theodore Roosevelt
