Because of dignity

I was recently having a discussion with Vorb in which he said some profound things. Vorb is a deep thinker, and he often challenges my thinking on issues by bringing a perspective to the table I had not yet considered.

On this particular day we were discussing the tremendous difficulties our organization continues to face day-by-day as we struggle to do what needs to be done in the community we know we have been called to serve.

Vorb reminded me once again that he makes certain decisions in his life “because of dignity.” I can’t get that phrase out of my head.

Because of dignity, certain stories are mine to carry, but not mine to tell.

Dignity. Perhaps it matters more today than ever.
