FOR ALL THOSE WHO ARE UNSUNG HEROES

Every day courage has few witnesses,

but yours is no less noble because

no drum beats for you and

no crowds shout your name.


~Robert Louis Stevenson~





(I beat my drum for you my friends.)

  1. This is a wonderful quote. It make me think of the bible verse that tells us not to brag about our good deeds, that God will see and reward us. Matthew I think.

    1. Thank you Ginny and perhaps Mr. Stevenson found his inspiration in Matthew :)

  2. That is a lovely quote. I tend to value the unsung heroes more than those who receive the praise and the accolades. Which may be unfair.

    1. Thank you Sue, all our unsung heroes need to be recognized. I know you are a hero to a lot of people, in work that is self-rewarding but not totally recognized by a lot of people. I just wanted to let you and many others know, I see you and what you do for others.
