Lições de presidentes passados

A historiadora Doris Kearns Goodwin fala do que podemos aprender com os presidentes americanos, incluindo Abraham Lincoln e Lyndon Johnson.  Depois, conta-nos uma memória comovente do seu pai, e do amor que partilhavam pelo basebol.

A meaningful life requires nurturing work, love, and play in equal measure. Abraham Lincoln’s legacy grew from fierce ambition paired with deep empathy, while Lyndon Johnson's post-presidency sadness revealed the emptiness of neglecting personal connections and recreation. Even the greatest achievements can feel hollow without joy and relationships to sustain the spirit. Finding pleasure in small rituals, like sharing baseball with loved ones, can link generations and provide enduring comfort.
