This is the power of the Nike swoosh. Nike doesn’t even have to use its name for you to know who it is.

It’s that simple.

I gave bars of soap to sculptor friends of mine and asked them to carve something out of them.

Stunning, isn’t it?

And yet these sculptures were in those bars the whole time. All these sculptors really did was remove.

Sculptors shape and form and rearrange, but at the most basic level they take away. And there is an extraordinary, beautiful art to knowing what to take away.

When you talk with people who have just received news that they have a life-threatening illness, what do they say?

“Now I must get those hedges trimmed!”

“I’ve been putting that plastic surgery off long enough.”

“It’s finally time to join that online poker club.”

No, of course not.

They talk about family and friends.

They gather those they love as close as possible.

They reflect on any amends that need to be made with anybody.

They talk about what matters most.

Suffering does that.

It compels us to eliminate the unnecessary, the trivial, the superficial.

There is greatness in you.

Courage. Desire. Integrity. Virtue. Compassion. Dignity. Loyalty. Love.

It’s in there—somewhere.

And sometimes it takes suffering to get at it.

It’s in there.
