Whatever you are, be a good one.” ...
Mgriffin from Highland, IN SEPTEMBER 16, 2013
I fully embrace this quote. I have people tell me I should seek a bigger office. As if there are small public offices. There can be no small public offices since there is nothing small about public service and truly committed serving of the public. That is why I love the sentiment behind this quote. It means do your best where ever you are, whatever you are doing. I am a local elected public official. I believe this. I hope that this is seen in my service every day.
