You are just an Extra in the Play
Remember you are just an extra in everyone else’s play.
~~ Franklin D. Roosevelt ~~ (1882 - 1945)
This quote is a classic. On the surface it might seem like a funny dig but it is full of meaning and inspiration. We all think ourselves to be very important but in most other people’s eyes, we are just an extra. However, that should not deter us from doing the very best we can, keep improving ourselves by continuously learning even as an extra. Because the lessons learned and experience gained while playing the extra will be highly beneficial in our own play, where we are the hero.
