Wouldn’t it be wonderful to be described by others as magnanimous? It only requires due diligence, and a commited effort to do the right thing in all circumstances. A life befitting the label brightens the hearts of the saddened, lifts the spirits of the downhearted, and softens the defenses of the wounded. May you be a light in our dark world, and be called … magnanimous.
