Great story! Being present is always the most important aspect of being a good person. There are so many distractions that the practice of being present is very challenging but crucial.
Wes Moore is my Governor. I live in a rural community Appalachia, just about as far from Annapolis as one can get in Maryland. Yet he is present here, and his presence, with you whether one on one giving you one of his amazing hugs or in a group of almost 100 people here as he was a week and a half ago, is always authentic and thoughtful. He is an amazing man and an incredible Governor. And I am so grateful that in this moment in our country’s history, I live in Maryland where he is our Governor. Thank you for seeing who he really is.
My mind is blown. At one point I had (may still have) a signed copy of “The Other Wes Moore”. We’ve moved several times but I’ll be hunting it down tomorrow.
It was not till reading this that the darn lightbulb went off that the Governor is the one and only. Huge face plant moment!
God, I love this for so many reasons: that there are men out there who see the connection between being a good man and raising good men; that presence is EVERYTHING; and, that the food of our mothers and fathers, from all countries, nourishes more than just our bodies.

beautiful. And that's all we can do: suit up and show up and do the work.
I love this story. Showing up everyday, being present everyday, that is leadership. B
