I remember it like it was yesterday.
I was going through a very difficult time in my life. The business was struggling and I had just been diagnosed with prostate
cancer. For awhile, I was paralyzed with fear.
A difficult board meeting had
just ended, and I looked at the stack of mail on my desk. Sitting on top of the pile was a short note from a friend that said,
"Mac, you are going to love this poem. It's called The Race, and, to me, it teaches one of life's greatest lessons."
As I began to read it, I was mesmerized. The words grabbed
my heart and wouldn't let go. It was an "ah-ha moment" at a time that I truly needed a "shot of inspiration." It helped give
me the courage and the belief to fight through the adversity I was facing in my life.
I am honored that with the help
of my friend, Michael McMillan, we were able to bring the words of D.H. Groberg to life through a beautiful gift book and
short inspirational movie.
