Was there a Message?

The following was a letter I wrote and sent to my local Editor and some other News Outlets on John Paul II Passing and Leadership.

Was there a Message?
More important was that message embraced!
Following the passing of John Paul II was Awe Inspiring, watching the Millions who traveled to Rome and the Tens of Millions who followed the event Worldwide, from all religious beliefs and cultures, shows the true nature of his leadership.
Many were at odds with some of his stances, as to church ideology, from within and outside of the Catholic Church. But he led the flock with Humble Dignity and Respect, as someone who knew he was no better than anyone in that flock but was thrust into that leadership and was determined to do his best! He listened intently and tried to follow Church Doctrine and Christ’s teachings and knowing he didn’t have all the answers because he wasn’t above anyone but similar too all. And because of that leadership was Respected and Loved by those he touched!
Will leaders of all strips hear the message shown of his impact on this present day World! For the way one leads and treats others sets how they are remembered. Leaders be they Religious, Political, Business, elected, appointed, or thrust into by other means , all who are charged over a few or many. Will they lead with Dignity/Respect or Arrogance? Will they have Millions celebrate their lives when they pass on, probably not, but if leading as one who listens and tries their best and without Arrogance they will be remembered Respectfully, by all those they lead and those they have come in contact with, near and far. And the memories of them will live on in Honor, Respect and yes even Love!
