Cynique Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Yes, like all of these award winners who thank god for snubbing all the other candidates who were also praying to win, believing they have been singled out for the honor, as if god is stooping to such triviality. We are all born with the god-given potential to achieve greatness but circumstances are random. The real heroes are, indeed, the trailblazers and innovators and justice seekers who persevere, endeavoring to make a difference in the world, as opposed to achieving fame and accolades.
