I agree that we should not judge people for a lack of education, though for the vast majority of people it is a valuable credential. I know so many brilliant people who could not survive the structure of a traditional education, but I could nonetheless trust them to perform better than some of the star students. In fact, if it weren't for the value that American universities and employers place on extracurricular activities, I would have never been able to show my full potential-- my grades, while good, were not the best, but my performance where it counts has been pretty good, I like to think. Look to performance, not to credentials, especially in creative fields.

“

Beginning to tune in to even the minutest feelings of… gratitude softens us… If we begin to acknowledge these moments and cherish them… then no matter how fleeting and tiny this good heart may seem, it will gradually, at its own speed, expand.
