It seems that Spencer was on...So powerful and true! It seems that Spencer was one of those beacons of human light that so eloquently expresses Judy Garland's quote:<br /><br />"Always be a first-rate version of yourself, and not a second-rate version of someone else."<br /><br />The tremendous courage it takes to be one's self is a powerful psychic influence, like a magnet of human integrity. Particularly in the face of the threatening storms of hate spewed forth from the pulpits and capitols. Such people have always been feared by those who wish to hold onto their power through demeaning others. Because their very being incites others to the dignity of being free to define oneself. For just who they are questions the essence of the power of those institutions or people which seek to define others. <br /><br />The fact that he was one of those rare individuals who not only helped his circle of friends or community but untold millions of lives is a continuing living testament to his compassion. What a gift to us all for leaving the world a better place!<br /><br />Thank you so much for posting this and letting us know about his amazing contribution to our world. May we all be inspired by his example.willow moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15566658878521689814noreply@blogger.com
