USA Today recently ran an article about 15 actors in Hollywood who are over 50 and still very much in demand. Meryl Streep, in particular, caught my attention because in spite of her tremendous success, she doesn’t take herself seriously. As the article put it, “Everyone adores La Streep, who has the most Oscar nominations under her belt of any actor in history (19) and is widely admired as the world’s greatest living actress. She’s in her own class — call it the A+ list — and never lets it go to her head. Smart as they come, she’s down-to-earth, funny and impassioned, gives the best acceptance speeches at awards shows (with or without her glasses) and genuinely seems to admire her fellow actors.” The lesson here is that if we choose to behave like Meryl Streep, we’ll find that life becomes much more rewarding and far easier to navigate.

I’m a big fan of your “Reminders”. In fact, today, I accidently deleted your message before reading it! I dug it out of the virtual trash can and read your story on Meryl Streep. As always, your words put a smile on my face.
In a world filled with negativity and bad news, your posts are a breath of fresh air and remind us all that it’s not really that hard to do the right thing.
