Zondervan Publishing House, Ken Davis, Davis
"I'd always looked back on my high-school
years as a victim of adolescent cruelty. But after my
twentieth reunion, I see it differently. My own
feelings of inadequacy and my skewed vision of my
place in the world made me a very poor prospect as a
friend. I selfishly sought affirmation and offered
little in return. A relationship with me was a
one-way street going my way.
In many ways I was a victim of my own narrow vision. I
bought the false social structure hook, line, and
sinker. The whole structure was an illusion. It was
so superficial that it dissolved the day we graduated.
Yet we endowed it with power that can affect lives
years later.
Today it doesn't matter who played on the football team
or won a speech contest. It doesn't matter who belonged
to what clique. Today I only wish I'd given more. Smiled
more. Been more helpful. Reached out to those who
could have used my help."
