陈凯:什么是真实的伟大   Kai Chen on what greatness means:    8/23/21
Greatness is never about being perfect, but about whether one's life has a meaningful end and whether he/she strives to move toward hope and future.  America is great, not because America is perfect.  America is great because America always strives toward future with a moral direction embedded in the nation's founding, and with a sense of eternal optimism and hope.  
Miracles do happen in life but whether one embraces a life of meaning and purpose determines whether greatness is possible in his/her life.  Escape from life dooms one into eternal hopelessness and makes silent despair possible.  Indeed, happiness is a choice.  Indeed, miracles have happened in my life and are continuing to happen.  I have nothing but gratefulness toward America and hope toward future.  May God continues to bless you - my beloved America.
