A Model for the World

On his way to India to help a friend distribute hearing aids to deaf children, Larry Fitzgerald was warned how overwhelming it was to witness people hearing their own voice for the first time.Little did Fitzgerald, the Arizona Cardinals’ star receiver, realize what awaited him.

Once he saw the expression of joy and wonder on the child’s face for the first time, it rendered immaterial anything he had ever accomplished on a football field.

“To be able to see that smile was really moving,” Fitzgerald said. “To be able to do something like that really humbled you and brought you down to earth and makes you appreciate what you have, and making a difference in that child’s life. I know that child couldn’t care less of what I did. All they cared about is that they were able to hear.”

Makes one think about how we are conducting business on planet earth doesn't it?
