pride in your choices

Will you take pride in your gifts or pride in your choices?

Will you be a cynic, or will you be a builder?

We are our choices. Build yourself a great story.

Thank you to Tanay for inspiring this post.

EDIT (2023-03-20): It’s interesting to revisit this post knowing what I know now about how Bezos has chosen to use his power and personal fortune. I still resonate deeply with the questions he has posed, but have to keep in mind that perhaps Bezos himself has not lived up to his own original intentions.
